Congrats on the 505... Maybe you could occupy your time til Xmas by reading a bulky oversized hardback edition of something to make you appreciate your gift even more...

Have patience, it will reward you. And welcome to the forum!

i can't speak about patience as i've never had any but mj is right, spending three weeks lugging around a huge hardback book will not only make you appreciate your sony even more but will in fact probably definitively ruin paper books for you.

good luck resisting temptation, i'm glad i'm not in your shoes !

I know your pain. I got mine 2 weeks ago and had hubby put it away till Christmas. However he is a lousy at hiding things so I managed to locate it ( okay - so I had to tear the house apart for a few days to find it - but I did!), load on my new books and read it while he was at work. Then last week I gave in and begged for it early which he gave in ( sucker!). So I am happy to say that I am really enjoying my new Christmas present and have no problems with nothing to open on Christmas day - opening the cover of the 505 will be joy enough! Good luck holding out - only 14 more sleeps. It truly is the best gift ever.
