Hi! everybody
I've been reading this forum for a while & I guess it is right that I introduce myself.
I am new to digital books & I think from what I have learnt here that I will settle for a Sony 505 (when I get my tax rebate!), unless that is you think I am making the wrong choice. Rog. |

I think you are making a well informed choice. Silver is the best!

Hello Rog:
I purchased the Sony 505 for my wife and she has been extremely pleased with it so far. My belief is that you will be happy with it, although I've heard conflicting reports about whether silver is in fact the best. Some say blue, others say red. Maybe you're color blind and it won't make a bit of difference. |

Hi Rog and welcome to MobileRead. I've had a Sony 505 for well over a year now and like it a lot.
BTW, blue is better! |

Hi Dixiegal, Jinlo, Cassidym & Toomanybooks and thanks for the welcome & comments.
I noticed there are opinions re the colour here ![]() which I get depends what is available when I have the spare cash. Though I think it will likely be silver. Can't wait as reading on my netbook is tiring on the eyes & having tried the 505 there is no comparison. |

Humm... I think that a decimal point is missing there. Wasn't it suppose to be "add an additional 50.5" IQ points with the purchase of a Silver Sony?. ![]() I know that the *BLUE* one comes with the "add an additional 505" IQ points. ![]() |

Hi,
I think the Sony prs-505 is the RIGHT CHOICE! Just for the record, mine is blue. But I kind of wish I would've gone with the red...such a bold, vibrant color. Oh well, there's always the next one! Enjoy your reader. |

You can while away the time by acquiring a library of free ebooks for your Sony. Then you can fill it as soon as you get it. I recommend starting with the ebooks form this site. They are nicely formatted and look great on the Sony.

Welcome!
We all have opinions on color, except me! ![]() ![]() Seriously, get the color that you like best. You'll find some incredible conversations here and some stimulating talk about ebooks and writers. It's all here. BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE! We also have a lot of free, public domain titles that a number of members have lovingly assembled, including yours truly who is a subliminally insane gent! Good luck on your Sony AND on the color (or colour) of your choice. ![]() Don |
