I want to enter the give-away.

I think I should win because I want to encourage my children to read. I bought my son in Junior High School a used PRS500 for Christmas. He took it with him every day to school and even got "in trouble" for reading too much! Then one day about 2 months ago, a bully confronted him about his "toy" and then shoved it out of his hands and onto the floor. It landed on the corner of the cover and cracked the screen, now there is about an inch of the corner that doesn't draw in. He can read with it, but I have to use Calibre to reflow the books with a huge margin so that he can get all the text. I have looked at replacement screens, but used ones are hard to come by and almost as expensive as another used reader. That is why I should win the contest, so that I can give it to my son.
