I was up in Londodn at the weekend , Harrods were doing a 10% off almost everything weekend promotion. I managed to get a PRS 650 for £180 , so by the time I claim the VAT back it will be around £150
![]() I have been using a PRS 600 (which I loved) but the 650 is so much better. There will be another 10% off weekend in Harrods before Christmas , just not sure when. Oh, almost forgot , I am able to use my HTC charger to charge my 650 from the mains. Last edited by halfway; 11-08-2010 at 03:56 AM. Reason: added last line of text. |

I'm waiting for an answer from the store. If I don't get one I will popp into the store to buy one on the 20th. Do you think the 650 is better?

I thought that the 350 was just a little to small for my tastes. I currently have a 600 but in the process of selling and then I am getting the 650.
When you get in store you will be able to see them together so will be able to see which you prefer. With the special intoductory price on the 350 not sure whether you get VAT back or not. I suspect so but dont know for sure otherwise its £199 for the 650 before Vat refund |

They now have the prs 650 here in Sweden but I think that I prefer the 350. I'm so looking forward to get it on Friday. :-)
If anybody knows a better price somewhere so please tell me, otherwise I will get it for £136 at Waterstones. |

AS you can see I loved the 650 so sold my 600 and got the 650. The difference in contrast between the 2 is amazing. I think when you see them side by side you will get a better idea especially when you see how small they both are.
I would ask them to get 1 of each out so that you can hold in your hand so that you can see what is more comfortable for you. But good luck whatever your choice one thing for sure you will enjoy using it |

When did you buy yours? Did they still had them for £129?
I think I would like the portabillity to just pop it in my pocket when I go out. |

Portability of the device is excellent, but its worth investing in a case to stop any accidental damage (or prodding of the screen). |

I bought mine on sunday but from a Sony Centre as I wasnt up London. Pretty sure they are still doing the 350 in Waterstones for £129 introductory offer as this was going even after the VAT refund deal had started.
I have to go up that way tomorrow so will pop in and let you know the price |

HI NJess
Ok went into Waterstones on Piccadilly and there introductory offer had finished and they were back up to £159 but apparently if, as i recall, you are coming from Sweden you can claim the VAT back at the airport/terminal. However for the good news I passed HATCHARDS Bookshop which is right next door to Fotnums and Masons on Piccadilly and they have the 350 at £129. I asked them if it was still going to be good on Friday and they said that as far as they know it should so fingers crossed for you |
