Well since the hype is for a 10/2 event and this is only the 10/1 thing, I think it's a safe guess that they're not the same thing.

I'm afraid I don't know any more than what's in the press release ... actually, I didn't read it all that carefully since we'd already been discussing it here, so you probably know more than I do.
Nonetheless, I'll see if I can kick over a rock or two and turn up anything. |

i'm still hoping for new and exciting devices. But looking at the titles swirling into that women's reader like "eat this, not that. Twillight", it certainly looks like some wireless new bookstore thingie with newer books..... |

The link above is the same than the link about the press release at the beginning of the page, so we're still in the dark.

Gosh, Im waiting with baited breath......though this has just been added to the Sony site
http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/...ngId=-1#/home/ and that is to do with the 'Reader revolution' and promoting in schools etc.... please let it be more than this. |

Any chance that a New York forum member can attend the press conference with a video camera and then post to YouTube?
And this only applies if it is something interesting. If it is the school thing or some other b.s. announcement, no need to bother. Thanks! |

Go to the sony.com/reader page, and do the demo thing in the main window there. At the end of it there's a place to fill in schools, but they also want contact info for the person filling them in. As an aside, the box in the lower, right-hand corner of that page goes to a live web-cam of the guy reading in the store window. Riveting stuff, that is. |

Huh?? I'm trying to grasp at that one, NatCh, but find only undisturbed air. Is this going to be a web event but only for those with an invitation? Or a teleconference? Or will a well-dressed guy pull up to the curb in front in a limo to whisk the invitee away to a secret location? |

We weren't actually told to keep the location a secret, but since Sony hasn't announced it we decided to err on the side of caution.
I'll tell you after the event begins. It's at a rather neat location in NYC. |

Ah, so the location is known to the attendees. Gotcha. Sounds intriguing. Hope you enjoy it, Nate.
