Hello from Wigan, England
Just ordered a Sony PRS 505SC and can't wait for it to be delivered. Main interest is history. Haven't told the wife yet though!!! Lol

Hi Sherrington59 and welcome to MobileRead. I've had a 505 since Jan 08 and really like it.

Be sure and let us know when you get your new toy.

Hi Sherrington59 and welcome to Mobilread - boy it sounds as if you are in heaps of trouble with the wife! - until she tries it and you loose it that is.

Buy her one as well!.

Welcome to MR!

I second A Nonny Mouse's suggestion, get your wife one too!

(Or tell her it will mean there will be less books cluttering up the house, whichever will work best )

Welcome to Mobileread, Sherrington59!

My suggestion, don't tell the spouse until you absolutely have to and then shave 10% off the actual price! It's worked for me for 25 years!

Happy Reading!

Kaz - that reminds me of something some-one has in their sig on another forum - it's along the lines "My only worry about dying is that my wife will sell my things for what I told her they cost"

My mom always hung new clothes in her closet for at least 2 weeks before she wore them. That way, if my dad asked her if something she was wearing was new, she could say, "No, I've had it awhile." I actually don't have to do that. David doesn't care what I buy as long as we have the funds and since I handle the bills he doesn't know anyway. To be honest, I would never buy something big (big being over $100) without discussing it with him first.

Hya Sherringwood: Good to have your company here -- I was brought up in Wigan and still have family and friends there. A fascinating and much maligned town. By the way, my own wee publishing house is registered next door at Ashton-in-Makerfield. If you want some free ebooks to get you started with your 505 (a superb machine) pop into www.bewrite.net and drop me a line of any title/s that catch your eye. Cheers.
