To my fellow members:

I did manage to pick up a 950 for $199 the other day and could be persuaded to sell it to you for the same price (including tax). You'd have to either meet me or pay for shipping, but either way, I can probably help you out.

I haven't opened the box yet, but I doubt anything is wrong with the 950; if there were, I'd take it back. So far as I can tell, the thing is pristine, though I could certainly open the box and check before sending or handing it to someone else.

It's possible I'll keep the 950 for myself, but I've intended to pick up a black 650 and was just about to arrange for a case to be made when I spotted the 950 for $199.

I just couldn't let another item beloved by people like us go on sale only to be harvested by vultures.

If a mobileread member with more than twenty posts has been fiending for a 950, feel free to send me a private message and I'll see what I can do. If you happen to live in New York, so much the better.

Otherwise, I suppose I'll now own all three sizes of reader and revel in the flexibility. It's more logical for a person who owns a Kindle 3 to choose the 950 anyway.
