Full SRP of $179.00 according to SONY
Just bought one for Mum from JB for $99, and they're pretty awesome. Full support for ePUB which is the open book standard, unlike Kindle.
The main downside is lack of a backlight, but a saving of $50ish compared to one with a backlight.
I also bought my Mum the case and light pack for $29 (SRP $59) from JB
Hope someone finds these of interest :)
Cheers,
Wade
Ah ok was confused by your story of buying one for $99 from JB.
Best E-reader on the market.
I bought the previous model and loved that , what is the improvement on this model?
They seem to be selling it alot cheaper these days
They do great enjoyable reviews, those two.
I dont know, the kindle keyboard and I have spent a few sexy nights together ;)
Very nice gift for your mum.
Very good price, far lower than stores like B&H in New York.
Here's hoping the upcoming PRS-T3 actually decides on a removable battery when they release it, but I'm not holding my breath. Companies love that e-waste.
it's also $89 on Grays http://www.graysonline.com/retail/prst2bc-n/cameras/sony-prs…
But its $9.95 shipping so it works out about the same. I guess the decider would be if you need something else from any of these stores and can combine the shipping to make it a bit cheaper overall.
This is a good price though, Ive always liked the sony ereaders ever since I saw one 10 years ago that my friend bought when we was living in china. Plus I already have epubs from using an ipad/iphone.
Anyone who has a tablet and an ereader, do you get less eye strain over long periods? I read on my ipad a lot but sometimes I get over the light…
E-ink is more pleasant to read for long periods. Especially in high ambient light.
I can't find it on their website, but does anyone know if its the same price for the white version?
Same as the deals from Sony itself and JB Hifi, so look there for comments.
