Please provide links to the stores - not for me, but for others not fortunate enough to have access to Sony Connect...
It seems the Sony apologists don't like me mentioning the fact that you can't easily order the Sony reader unless you're in the US (and now UK and Canada). But it's a fact. Yes, I have also mentioned there are a few options for the rest of humanity to order this device. Here's a comprehensive list, as far as I can tell, just so I'm not accused of withholding information:
Waterstones, B&H, Borders, Fnac, eBay.
There may be others. Be warned there may be some issues with after-sales support (i.e. none/limited) - others with direct experience are better equipped to address this issue.
My point is they (Sony) have made it very clear the rest of us second class citizens (of the world) aren't recognised as valid consumers. To follow their apparent logic, the rest of us should seriously consider other devices before buying a Sony and divert our dollars elsewhere - that is the only statement consumers can make.
LRF eBooks are also available from very limited sources, and the Reader doesn't support other common for-sale formats (e.g. Mobi). I think this statement is true, but again, if you know where people can buy LRF/BBeB books easily then share the info with all those on the forum who have chosen the Sony (if not already in a Sony forum somewhere).
Cheers!
