Well, I'd been on the fence about replacing my PRS-500 with a Kindle or a 505. I think this decided it for me - I'll be getting a PRS-700 in a couple of months. Now, I just wish they would add the PRS-700 to their rebate offer. I know I can ebay my 500, and if need be I'd do that, but I'd just as soon walk into a Sony Style store, give them my 500, and walk out with a $300 700.

For me the biggest reason to get the 700 is the light - I read at night a lot, and that will be a godsend. I would have gotten the 505 with the light cover, but this just looks more elegant.

Now if only Sony would release Mac software....
