You almost have to laugh at how inept Sony is at selling ereaders nowadays. Who else would raise the price of their ereaders the day before black Friday.

Some sale...

I was looking hard at the T1, but I couldn't bring myself to purchase one with the obvious firmware problems that plague the device right now. Instead, I stopped off at Target and picked-up a Nook STR for 1/2 the price of a T1. It has limitations, but I think it will work fine for what I need.

Perhaps when Sony is closing out the T1 in the summer I'll look at one again.
