My Sony Reader showed up today at work in a USPS Priority Mail package. After a long wait (I ordered it on Feb. 23rd) it has finally arrived. Not sure how much time I'll have to enjoy it before April 15 since I'm surrounded by stacks of tax returns, but what after the 15th, watch out!

The kind folks at Books on Board offered to send me a different color since the blue Readers were backordered, but I decided to wait. They told me that ALL of the orders they receive from military personnel stationed overseas are for the blue Readers. Apparently, it's the most patriotic color.
