I'm really enjoying reading with it. Lionel
Yes I enjoy mine immensely so good and happy reading. However it may be a fraction costly I think, I got mine new directly from Amazon (arrived two days ago) for $354 Au including delivery with full warranty and leather case, is the reduced warranty and light worth $14? I have a number of ereaders and never used a light even though I have been given two as gifts.

I wonder about ebay purchases, my first ereader a Sony 500 was from ebay a few years ago and turned out to have been made obsolete by the Sony PRS 505 almost immediately and cost more. The next was Iliad from Dymocks and was grossly overpriced compared to direct supply, since then I have compared and found purchase from either B&H or direct from manufacturer was the best and cheapest option when buying from Australia, even with postage/delivery taken into account.

Cheers
