Saw the PRS505 in a BestBuy In Manhattan last year, but wasn't convinced, even though the price was good compared to the UK.

Tried one in Waterstones in Kingston in May and fell in love - for some reason it seemed quicker than the one I tried in NY, and the display around it was much better lit (the shop display, not the reader). So I bought it (from Play.com, which has been cheaper for a while now). And I love it!

Tempted to buy a 300 when I finish my Harley trip in SFO next year (around April). Anyone know the best retail store in SFO (easy for a tourist to find)?

I guess the only difference is the warranty - but the savings are so tempting!
