Hi..just got a sony prs 505 2nd hand off ebay, and i am loving it.
was tempted by the Kindle, but put off by how fragile it looked.
( plus i went to 3 stores to check out the readers and none of the stores offered any sort of preview of a working device....pc world.. 'twice' (christmas and this month, ) and currys....:rolleyes: )
looked around and got advice from many forums and reviews, and the 505 came out rather well..got one off ebay for reasonable price in tip top condition.
have stuffed a few books on board already, so hopefully this cracking littel device will get me back reading again...lost all my enthusiasm for books over the last year or so..
nothing gets me interested.
interests have been sci-fiction/war/history and some crime and horror...
But now with a world of free books and the online stores i should find something of interest.
Downloaded calibre to the comp to check out ebooks, so i do have some idea of what to do, but i am sure i will tapping the goup collective for help with one or two issues as they come along....:D
just a quick thanks for all the help so far, great site...:cool:
