I've found a couple places that have the 300 for around $100, so that looks like a good buy. I will make a final decision after the first week of July, the kids will be joining hubby and me the second week of June till the end of July. So, the first two weeks they are here will give me a chance to make up my mind. Unless something changes and we decide to go ahead and get one for him to have read for Christmas, downloaded with a lot of books.
I'll be sure to post what we decide and a follow-up on what he thinks of it if we do get him one.
