Well, my new RED 505 arrived in the mail today. I had to take my parcel notice to the post office and pick it up. How bad is this? I had to open the box in the car before I got home!!!!

Anyway, I was very impressed with my purchase. It was an Ebay purchase and it was also 2nd hand. Wow, if I didn't know better I would have thought it was new! The original receipt was even included in the box so I should be able to purchase an extended warranty if I want to. Also included were 2 clip on book lights and an AC charger! Not a mark or scratch on it and it came in a beautiful burgundy cover!

I'm slowly figuring out how to transfer books, collections and audio onto the Reader and did get through the authorizing procedure. I think because I registered it before Mar 31st I'm entitled to 100 free classics, there was a little window that popped up with that message.

I thought maybe I would have some adjustment period using a digital reader but tonight I caught myself reaching for the upper right hand corner to flip the page!
