I just bought one and can't wait to pick it up. I needed it because the internet has so much information on PDF file formats i want to look at and read but i hate sitting at a computer desk because of my back it would be nice to lay down and read those PDF files

Is this like a virgin convention?

ok great... 400 bucks...the books should atleast be free or cheaper than the paper version since no trees are being harmed lol and 0 time goes into distributing the books.. you could get a good 20 books for that price.

that god awful black-then-white refresh thing drives me up the wall.  I was literally in the sony shop with the cash to buy one. the sales guy suggested I play with the one on display... and within 2 mins i wanted to smash the f**king thing!
