I just paid, it's supposed to be like new condition (only used for 1-2 months) and hopefully I will get it soon in the advertised condition with no flaws. It was, of course, a bit more than the current-gen Readers go for, but I didn't realize just how much extra screen real estate you get with the 950 until I had the 350 and realized how small it is in comparison to 6 inch readers (which is good and bad of course.. WAY more portable and very adorable). So I think paying the premium is okay, and I'll probably use this and hold out until next year's offerings and hopefully an upgraded E-ink Screen. Or I might spend even more cash and buy a smaller E-ink reader (I may try to exchange my 350 rather than returning it.. I'm still not happy with the things I noted earlier in this thread) to carry around. But for something I'm carrying around, I would like it to have Wi-Fi, which is the other reason the 350 is almost there but not quite for me. It is a really great size, however. I don't carry my 505 around because honestly the weight is noticeable in my bag, whereas I don't think I would have that problem with the 350. so my 950 will be my "at-home reader." I can't wait to get it!  |
Congrats! I love my 950, and it's my stay at home reader too. I have to give it the special treatment now that it is so difficult to replace. I find the 350 is great to carry around in my handbag due to its size. I got the T1 because I wanted wireless capability. The T1 is much lighter than my old 505 and isn't too heavy in my handbag.
