Same here! 350 moved in with one of my friends and now she says she is reading her second book on it (she seems to be a VERY SLOW reader) and I can't get it back. Whenever I nudge her to buy one for herself she murmurs something about "needing a German menu" or "have to see it in the wild first" as in: "yours is a tad expensive, but show me something less expensive, with German menu, more features than yours has and I MIGHT buy it. Because as it is, I can use a top end product for free". All she does is fighting to look smug whenever I ask for my sweet 350

I think it is hard to imagine for avid readers to let go of their beloved books. You have to make the reading experience on a reader for half an hour.
