Is this the cheapest Sony Portable out there?
Hey everyone, I want to get into the mobile read era, but I need a device first.

Is this the cheapest Sony Portable that is available?

http://www.amazon.com/Sony-PRS-505-P...5199903&sr=1-1

Or should I be looking at something else?

Thanks

There's one on amazon for $238.99...it's sold and shipped from Vann's, but you can order it through amazon. Of course, I can't find it on amazon, but if you search through some of the other threads on this website, you'll find a link. It's in one of the threads that mentions the sony ebook for $199 at Borders. Sorry I couldn't find it.

$269 seems to be the lowest price at the moment...drat I wasn't paying attention to my Borders emails and missed out on the $199 coupon.

The vanns deal is over since they ran out of stock, on amazon/jr.com its $249.99(you can see the price if you add it to your cart but its still $10 for shipping), if you want wait for the weekend since amazon and its affiliates sometimes modify prices friday night for some reason.
