ebook reader shops in london

erzebet · 08-13-2010, 03:39 PM

Hi there!

I will visit UK for a couple of days. I would love to buy myself a good ebook reader but I would have to see it first and if I love it I would want to buy it then as I won't be in London for too many hours. I am going to phone the shop before actually going there, but I don't want to promise I will buy a certain ebook reader before I see it.

I have been using Google to identify such shops in London but didn't have too much success.
If there is anyone that lives in London and can recommend me such a shop with a website if possible, I would be really grateful.

I would recommend waterstones and any of the Sony range!

Thanks - I've seen they have a lot of shops in London. Do you think I should rather try the central shops at Waterstones or Sony?

Waterstones in Piccadilly would be your best bet. Enormous bookshop selling a range of different readers. 1 minute's walk from Piccadilly tube station.

just don't go there on the 8th of September, because former British Prime Minister and Wannabe War Lord Tony Blair will be there signing his book! I can imagine the security arrangements around that event.
