I've been playing all weekend with my new Kindle. I've taken advantage of the Cyberread 50% off coupon and bought about $74 worth of books and paid $37 (great deal ). All the books were Mobipocket in .prc format (I rarely buy Mobi, I usually buy Lit outside of LRF, but buying Mobi helped me to skip 1 step, converting Lit onto both Mobi & LRF format for both readers). I then stripped the DRM & loaded them on my Kindle and then ran them through Calibre to make LRF versions and loaded them on my PRS-505. My only complaint so far when it comes to the actual sofware is there are no page numbers. I like how the Sony tells you, you're on page 3 of 250 or if you change the font, it recalculate the pages (the 250 pages in small font might be 300 in medium font, page 3 of 300). That way, I know there are 247 or 297 pages to get through per font size. That's a small issue and I'm sure I'll get use to it. Overall I really love the Kindle and I'm glad I finally bought one. I will alternate between it and my PRS505.
