Hi from Israel

Hi all,

Nice idea, this introduction form.

Been wanting an e-book reader for A LOT of time. Have to read tons of material for work, and eyes getting old and aching. Had Kindle been marketed to the world, would have bought it. But us under privileged ...

Just been to England. At the science museum, was amazed at the crystal clear display quality of the new Sony PRS-300 (and disappointed by the glare of the touch edition). But - they didn't have VAT return. So I went to Harrods and after ages of deliberation walked out not with a 300, not with a touch, but with a PRS-505.

Boy, am I going to have fun!

Avi

Welcome, Avi!

I'm sure you'll love your 505 - it's a nice little device (I've had mine just over a year now)

Welcome to MobileRead, Avi!

Have fun with your 505. I take mine everywhere.

Welcome!

Ooooh - enjoy the PRS505!

They sound like good little contraptions.

I've never seen one 'in the flesh' - we're under-privileged in Aust too, in that regard

Well, Shalom! Welcome to the forums!

Hya Avi. Great to have your company. My own wee publishing house in Europe just published a book in paperback and ebook by a neighbour of yours (Daniel Abelman in Jerusalem) called ALLAKAZZAM!. Lots of fun. If you want to try it out -- with illustrations -- in your 505, just drop me an note and I'll be happy to send it over to you as an email attachment. Cheers. Neil
