Just checked and you can get a 505 for $299 + $40pp to UK. £170 seems pretty reasonable, but would be annoyng if sony then released at £200 in UK with 1yr warranty...

Well, since you have been able to hold this far, I would say you should wait a little bit longer. If they launch Sony Reader in the UK any time during April, then the waiting is worth benefits of purchasing the reader in the UK. If they fail to launch it here in April then...well it is just a matter of a few weeks, 1 month top. After that you can order it from B&H any time and the reader will be with you within 3 working days (sometimes even 2 ).
