PRS-505: In Germany! - Page 2

So if I buy my reader here in Germany, there's no option to change the language to English? Or wipe the firmware and put the British/US firmware on to it?

If you are interested, I have a 505 for sale which I bought in the USA. It has the modded firmware, so you can switch between DE and EN.

I would like a blue one too, if I ever get one, but color is waaaaaayyyy second fiddle to a good warranty. Me, nothing short of Sam's Club 4 year coverage for $10 a year is what I am getting even if it is only in silver. They have a no questions asked warranty. Just walk in, get a new one, and if they don't have them they give you the current money price for one if they were carrying them.

And for the money you have to pay for one, 3-4 years is the minimum I would want to use it before moving on to something else - no matter how cool the newest gadgets are at the time. Don't care if they have holographic wrist watch readers in 2 years.

Of course, you must realize that I am the type that if I don't get 15 years out of a car I feel I got ripped off. : )

Oh, and by the way. Glad you can now get them in Germany. Congrats.
