Namely my Dad, we were sitting on the patio sipping a nice after dinner wine and listening to the XM Radio; I also had my Reader in it's BookArmor case and he asked what it was and I told him it was my Reader, took it out and found something he would be interested in reading and he took to it right away! I didn't need to show him how to turn pages, only how to increase text size and where the power switch was.
This wasn't the first time I tried to get him interested in reading ebooks but now he seems more open to the concept; he knows about the Kindle and that there are other competitors and I explained the pros & cons of the Kindle but he really likes my 505 and joked about taking 'borrowing' it.
I suggested I could get myself the red one I've been lusting for for the past year and handing off my blue to him.
He asked why red since it would be distracting and pull you out of the reading experience so I said it's because it's
RED!
So now first I need to decide if I want to upgrade to the 600 or stick with the 505 and if I stick with the 505 do I wait for a price drop?
I'm glad I didn't order an Oberon cover yet; I was going to wait for the Ginkgo design in green but I don't think that would be so great with a red Reader.
