I could have used help if resisting the woot.com deal on the 300.
I just bought my kids each a jetbook lite. The deal on those was $99. I also bought some rechargeable batteries to use in them. The kids have each read quite a few books and are happy with the readers. But the readers don't follow links or have a TOC feature.
Now woot came out the other day with a deal of $109 for a PRS-300. I resisted when I saw it at 3am. I came home from work around 9am and went to bed. Usually deals at woot sell out by noon. When I got up around 4pm I checked and they still had readers available.
I broke down and bought two, one for each kid. I'll let them use them for a while and decide which one they like then sell the other two on ebay.
Since I have a 505 it will make it a little easier transferring the files to my kids readers and all of the great omnibus editions here on MobileRead will be easier for them to navigate.
Haggard Anthology Vol 01-15
Dr Thorndyke Omnibus Vol 1-7
Sherlock Holmes Omnibus
The A. J. Raffles Omnibus
The Fu-Manchu Omnibus
The Complete Professor Challenger Stories
The Jungle Tales Of Tarzan Vol 1,2,3,4,5
Charlie Chan Omnibus
John Carter's Chronicles of Mars
Carson of Venus
The Complete Moon Trilogy
The Land That Time Forgot Trilogy
Pellucidar, The Inner World
And the list goes on.
Alright now I'm just justifying my decision.
