My replacement 700 arrived today. Sony's support was very helpful in getting me a brand new unit in just over a week, so kudos to them.

Unfortunately, my replacement STILL HAS DUST SPOTS! In fact, it has more than my original 700 started out with. I've had it with this. The 700 has been a massive, frustrating disappointment. I think I've spent more time trying to work around the device's shortcomings than I have reading. At this point, I'd rather just have the unit replaced with a 505 and eat the 100 dollar difference. Or maybe I'll have the thing framed so I can hang it on my wall to remind me to make smarter purchases. Back to paper for now.
