Where to buy Sony Reader 505 in NY, NY?
Hi all,
a friend of mine is probably going to NY for a few days. Does anybody know where exactly he can find the reader? I don't want him to loose too much time seeking. I recon he will be mostly in Manhattan. Thanks for any tips Andreas |

Cheapest in Manhattan is as www.datavis.com ( http://datavis.com/cgi-bin/product.exe?prrfnbr=472536 ) for $279.99 plus NYC tax which brings it to $302.37. They have dozens of them right by the door (silver) and some blue ones upstairs. Bring a copy of the web printout if you can, because the box was marked with a $300 price tag which I suspect they would have charged if I didn't have the printout in hand. They are on Fifth avenue and 39th street and are authorized sony dealers. You could go over to B and H photo at 9th and 34th, but they get you for another $10 and they can be a pain about price matching. Or the Sony Store, of course, on Madison avenue in the 50's for $300+tax

Do any of these places sell the 500 model? (New or refurb?)

Thanks a lot for your help. So in about two weeks I should also be owner of a PRS.
Thanks Andreas |

Picked up a 505 today at Datavision. They are by the front door, just to the right in a case. Note that the boxes all have a silver picture but the actual color (blue or silver ) is printed on front.
Bring in a price printout from their website and they should give you that price ($279.99) instead of the $299.99 sticker price, no hassle. $303.xx out the door! |

How much does the 500cost there? Datavision sells the 505s for $20 less than Sonystyle ($280 plus tax if you show them the website printout), just down the road at 39th and 5th.
