Neither. But probably I'd yell at her pretty loud.

I think I'm going to love it just as much as blue 505, maybe even more! Although...as I was looking at the blue one, I wish it was still working. It's so pretty, yet so sad with it's broken screen. I'm just authorizing it w/ the Sony Store and loading books on it now. I was worried that red would be distracting but now I don't think so. I think it'll just be gorgeous and I'll lose myself in my book as always.

Hi Raven, I'm sorry about your loss; that's sad. I'm glad you love your new red 505 - I have the same one, and I love it!; the colour makes me happy. I also have a blue 300, which is equally nice - you may want to get one (on your boyfriend's account) to help with your grieving. By the way, I am available, especially during the cold Ontario winter, to come and visit you in Florida

Thanks Coyote. The 300 doesn't do it for me, I'd need another blue 505 to help me get over my grief and to keep my red one company. I didn't tell my beau that I had found another reader online and purchased it, I just showed it to him when he got home. He looked at it and said, "You don't need three readers." Then he tried saying, "But you 'gave' me the blue one so I broke my reader." You know what I said to that?

As for coming to FL. In the winter I get confused and think I'm in Ontario with all of those blue and white license plates on 2 out of 3 cars. We'll have to see if the beau can hold off not breaking any more readers. I should send him in for more training before I sent him back, dontcha think?

I just received my M-edge cover and I'm amazed that your other half managed to break the screen while the jacket was on! The jacket is really quite hard and I tried pressing strongly and I couldn't even flex the case much. He must have managed to put quite a lot of pressure on a single point to be able to damage the screen!

I had the prsacl1/light wedge cover on. I was surprised that the wedge didn't offer better protection but I'm pretty sure it wasn't a hit that did it, but steady pressure over hours.

I will know I'm in Florida because the people in those cars won't be all miserable and bundled up in parkas.

Yeah, I guess you're right. He does sound like he is catching on to ereaders, with your mentoring, even though he doesn't yet appreciate the emotional bonding. But, as you chose him, I'm sure he must be pretty good, and has potential

I just bought a used Sony 505 in sangria red on ebay and I can get insurance through Square Trade for two years. Can't remember if I can add accident insurance, but I am delighted that I can insure it at all. Now I am waiting for another day when they offer 30% off.
