Hi everyone,

I got my Blue PRS505 imported in a few months ago, have been lurking around here for a while.

Using calibre (you rock, kovidgoyal) to manage my Reader on Debian x64 (compile from source, natch). Occasionally I find a book I have to play around with pdfcrop/pdfnup before I can reasonably read it, but it's rare.

I think the damn thing's paid for itself already, in terms of books I've been able to talk myself out of buying the paper version of because of the long list of stuff on my Reader to finish reading!

Just one thing - I have a clip-on booklight, but have been loath to use it because it leaves marks in the leather case. Is that a long-term issue?

Thanks!

Sohum
