Lumiens -- enjoy the 700! I've had mine since November and I'm still thoroughly enjoying reading with it. I find that it fits my hand better than the 500 which I bought in March of 2007, and the built-in light means no add-on weight when reading in bed. And the huge increase in speed and the ability (finally!) to handle large numbers of books both in memory plus on a memory stick makes this such a wonderful device.

One great purchase to improve things is to buy a PSP (playstation portable) charger (car and/or wall outlet) because the 700 charges twice as fast with that than with the USB cable, and you can continue to read while charging with the PSP charger, something you can't do when charging via USB.
