Is it Kindle-centric? Or may a lowly Sony worshipper attend?

Would be fun!

hi rjfarrell ! i think this meetup will mainly be attended by kindle users, but perhaps it's open to *all* ebook enthusiasts, although a sony worshipper might be in the minority.

please do contact F1Wild about the meetup to find out more details. take a look at this thread.

Well, unfortunately due to some health setbacks here, I will not be able to attend, but I certainly hope there will be lots of pics posted.

As for the "lowly sony owner" attending? I think that would be a marvelous opportunity for others to see that device and how it works, if they don't have access to one. And, it would be a great opportunity for the Sony owner to see and try the Kindle.

I cannot imagine excluding anyone from an ebook reader get-together, regardless of what device they have.
