Sold iLiad for 350£ and planning to get 1000s
I just sold my iLiad on ebay for 350£ and planning to get 1000s. Can someone just if it is a bad move i.e., selling it? The reason I sold it is due to its fragile nature. I am really scared every time I go out with it and the cost of getting it fixed. Now, shall I get 1000s or wait untill OCt 2 for Sony's announcement? I still got the option of opting out of the sale from ebay. Please post your opinions.

I dont think sony will offer a 10,2". I think it will be a upgrade of the existing PRS505, more on the software side, i.e. worldwide wireless distribution of books. I may be wrong.
If you want to read letter size pdfs and be able to annotate I think its the right thing you'r doing. ![]() Gogolo |

Ok. But do not blame me if they will present the super-mega 13" only 200g weighting, video-color PRS...

I would wait until the sony event before buy a dr1000s for several different reasons:
1)2nd October is only a week ahead. Can't you wait for such a small amount of time? 2)We don't know what sony has up its sleeve, what if it releases a 9.7" device for half the price of the dr1000s? 3)By 2nd October surely there will be reviews of the dr1000s made by members of this forum, maybe even video reviews. I hope this helps. Last edited by olis; 09-24-2008 at 06:59 AM. |

If being afraid of breaking your ebook device made you sell iLiad, then why won't you sell dr1000s for the same reason? Is dr1000s more robust than iLiad?

I would say you are doing a good choice. I would make a same decision If I were you.
