Hello everyone. I've been around here for a couple years and have been using a Sony Reader PRS-505. While I always liked the device I felt it was time for something faster and with a better screen. I really liked the new Sony models with that IR touchscreen setup, but they are very expensive plus the 6" model has some serious availability issues. So my new Kindle 3 plus lighted cover arrived about 1/2 hour ago
Putting my old 505 side-by-side with the Kindle 3 *really* shows how much better these e-ink Pearl screens are - wow. So much better contrast and I love it!
I'm still fighting with the kindle's wifi settings - can't get it to connect to my office wifi (I'm in IT so I've got no one to ask buy myself

)
Initial impressions are very good so far!
