Red PRS 505

So, I'm about to be traveling around the world. I'll be having (amongst other stops) a week in San Fransisco and a week in London.

I have a friend who (having seen my blue PRS 505) is desperate for a red one.

My question is

Where on either London or SF is the best place to find a red PRS 505?

Thanks in anticipation

In the UK, I believe that it's only John Lewis that has the red Readers.

(I was going to say that appeared to be £25 more than the 'standard' £199 price for the Reader, but it looks as if £224 is the current price for the Reader - when did that change?)

One of the Sony Style stores should have them. I see the one in downtown S.F. has been closed, but there are other locations. Check the store locations from the Sony Style Store homepage. There is a drop down menu that lists all the California stores.

Fry's has them on their website - you might call ahead and see if they have any instore. Only $249! Or you can order it online for instore pickup.

Here's the store locator - http://shop4.frys.com/ac/storelocator/index.jsp

None in SF, I don't know if any of these are near enough for your purposes.
