My wife and I were on vacation earlier this month and lounging on the beach when I noticed this guy, a few beach chairs away, reading a James Rollins paperback. So, since I've never read Rollins, I wandered over and asked him how he liked it.

"Great", he said, "and I love being on vacation like this. I read damn near a book a day. In fact, I damn near needed a second suitcase to carry them all."

"You need an eBook reader", I told him

"What's that?", he asked

So, I explained it and showed him my Sony 505. And he was over the moon!

"Man, that's my two favorite things in life, toys and books, combined into one. I am getting one of those the minute we get back home! Thank you"

A while later, he and his wife wandered off. But he came back a couple of hours later and thanked me again for showing him the Sony. Then he told me he'd just finished reading the Rollins book and handed it to me.
