My Blue 505 arrived today from J and R in New York. It was sent last night at 6:00 PM and I had it in my hands here in Calgary at noon (Fed Express).
I charged it which took an hour and then loaded up Pillars of the Earth which I had converted to the Sony Format last weekend and I loaded HarryT’s Sherlock Holmes Omnibus.
All I can say is that I am one happy camper. The Sony is an excellent piece of hardware and the two books I have loaded read wonderfully.
I have not registered with the Sony store. I believe I’ll find the classics on this sight better packaged then the ones available on the Sony site (Harry T has done a great job putting the Sherlock Holmes series together)
One note to Canadians… I do not think we’ll have to wait long for the device and the Sony store to be available to us. The instructions come in both French and English and on the back of my 505 under the serial number sticker is printed :
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003
It is also written in French
