As for rolling over on the device, I suggest you buy (assuming you buy the Sony) Sony's extended warranty that covers accidental damage. I bought a 3-year policy for $70 when I got my 505. Haven't needed it yet, but now I worry less when my wife wants to use the 505 -- she tends to fall asleep while reading and has rolled over on her books  . |
Okay, I see now where you set that in Calibre. Good to know--though I'm not really considering the 505 very seriously. I'm really weighing the built-in light on one hand (700) versus the convenience of sticking with Mobi format on the other (Cybook). Both, as I understand, have more font flexibility than the 505.
I was mentally adding the price of insurance to the already considerable price of the 700.
