Sony from US -> Oz

Hi SeaWolf,
I bought my Sony 505 from US on the internet. I used e-bay to find seller who exports to Australia; I think Sony prohibited it for a while (?).
I bought it from DataVision http://www.datavis.com:80/ . Pretty fast express delivery. I paid 270USD + 52.50 USD delivery. Someone is selling them on eBay in ustralia for around 450 (I believe) , so it is cheeper to import them directly. Concept of e-Books is still new to me so I am not efficient with formats so I can't comment on ePub . At this stage I enjoy experience very much .... downloading classics from internet . Today I listened to audio books on it while reading manual.
Cheers,
Kris

You must be pretty happy about the ePub firmware becoming available, should mean that you'll be able to buy books in ePub format for your reader without too many problems.
