Took a trip this morning to Waterstone's on Piccadilly and treated myself to a shiny new PRS-505. Got it home and all set up and used the points I earned on my Waterstones loyalty card to get a couple of ebooks.

I've just finished reading The Seven Words You Can't Say On Television by Stephen Pinker, and although the ebook appeared to have a few minor formatting issues (which are nothing to do with the device) I'm completely sold on this gadget - the screen is absolutely superb and after a few pages I completely forgot I was using the Reader and just concentrated on the book, which of course is the whole point.

I suspect this device will be a constant companion, both for reading at home and on my journey to and from work.
