It looks like the only reader I can get easily is the PRS 300 shipping via Amazon at $320 incl taxes, shipping etc.

Is there any reason not to get the 300? Since I can't return it I'll have to live with any problems.
Everyone I know who recieved / purchased the 300 has been very impressed,
even weeks later after they still feel the same way.
Not the same story for the 600, nor for the Opus.
HarryT is always promoting his Opus and loves the great epub format, sure enough, but i don't see that much high praise around.

I'll have my 300 on Monday and if you can wait, i'll let you know how much it rocks.

Krystian Galaj :
"I would wait until they release a firmware version with bugfixes. As Opus is now, it often crashes, at least a few times a day, according to some users, and Bookeen isn't known for speedy delivery of firmware updates. Don't count on promises of future features. "
