I wanted to thank everyone for the advice - I really am after the Blue Reader at the moment, but it's also good advice to wait until 2nd. October, and see what comes up. - The thing with buying abroad, and the cost, don't worry me too much - Life's too short, I want what I want, not what Sony will sell me locally.
I should mention that I am a big Sony fan, having also been into Shortwave (broadcast) receiving radio - And some of the discontinued units, I got sent to me from Japan, via U.S.A. - but Sony have now abandoned this market.
Looks like the Reader, is 'pastures new' for them, and if they can advertise, and sell enough of them, a business opportunity.
But until I came upon this site, I hadn't realised the opposition, and especially the way quite a few people in the States, now own and use this technology.
Regards,
