For Houstonians, the Sony Style store in the Galleria shopping center had the Readers in stock. At least, they did when I went by there 3 hours ago.

They said that they had 11 in stock though apparently 13 people had called in and said that they wanted to reserve one. When I called shortly before visiting the store, the salesperson said they only had them on display (3, it turns out). After I went in though and am pretty sure I said that I had not reserved one, a salesperson brought out another salesperson (manager?) who then sold me the Reader.

I also got the $45, 2-year Accidental Damage from Handling (ADH) plan along with the Reader. Time to play now...
