Anybody know of site that'll be liveblogging it? I imagine SOMEBODY at the press conference will at least be Twittering/Tweeting.

So, it should start when I've just closed down my PC and will be on my way home. Good, that gives you all time to post all about it!

Or from the song lyrics "3 - 6 - 9 the goose drank wine..."
That's 10:30 EDT right?
Currently it's 9:20am Tuesday (EDT) - Time in New York City, New York,
therefore just over 1 hour left before it starts.

I just saw a side-by-side comparison of the PRS-600 and PRS-505, and it took a little wind out of my sails. I'm still anxious to hear what news comes from the press conference, but I'm sad that the PRS-600 is so similar to the PRS-700 in terms of screen quality.

I'm still waiting for the comparison between the 600 and 700 before making a real judgment.

If you don't have flash, see Engadget. Perhaps an 8.1" with 3G?

"Daily Edition" sounds like newspaper subscription.

Seeing the screen from the Touch edition muted my initial enthusiasm but the "Daily Edition" has replaced that interest if it comes out with a Kindle DX equivalent sized screen and a faster controller for pdf viewing.

I know the hardware will look generations better than that 1980s styling.

Come on Sony, don't disappoint with your high end. I know you are bleeding red all over your electronics division but don't let it spill to the e-ink division!

Especially with Amazon's latest "we'll delete your content wirelessly" fiasco, I might be a little less alone on this than before, but I'd really like to see wi-fi instead of cellular wireless.

The "Daily Edition" has piqued my interest. It is definitely larger than the other two and this could be the wifi device Sony spoke of, so the question is... is it touch screen or not?

It's the "Daily Edition" that has me curious, too. Could Sony have finally come up with a significant upgrade over the PRS-505?

If so - I could be getting a second reader
