While I like and use my 505 a lot, I don't have to have it. I could use the library to get pBooks like I did before the 505.

I don't know, just having the Baen free library available to me makes up for the cost of the 505. Also, Fictionwise has had some good deals in the past which I still have to work though. Yeah, the library is an option, but I still have to drive out there to get books, and they might not have everything I want.

No wonder I have a home office and order a lot of stuff over the Internet.

I guess it depends on where you live. I'm guessing that you are probably up the route 7 corridor, where you don't have many options. (Thanks Fed for killing the Dulles rail.
) If you are more down I66 and I95, you have more options.
