The problem is that WH Smith's doesn't, again, ship to non-UK addresses (funny that I've ordered misc. stuff like 100+ times from the UK, some even more expensive than any of these readers and I've never come across this problem until now).

Also, I'm not sure I even want to support a company that has different prices for the same thing in different countries inside the EU. If you order from the official site into a UK address, the price is 200£, but choose Finland (and a lot of other countries) and the price jumps to 280€. Same in Pixmania, for example, 220£=>280€.

But yup I'd definitely consider CyBook aswell if it had a comparable price to the PRS-505.
