I've only seen one working demo before at Staples on the 600. The 300 was labeled as non-working demo. Same for the 505s I've seen at Target and Walmart. It's really a shame. The stores around me really didn't support these that much. They would've sold more had they had working demos of the eReaders, imo. Not many people know about eInk technology. I was even skeptical after seeing the 600, but, then again, I know after reading here that the 505 had a better screen and brought it sight unseen yesterday. The average customer doesn't browse sites like these before purchasing, so it really is a see it to believe it kinda deal with the eReaders.
