Via Twitter from top_book came a link to The Book is Dead site, where I also saw this goodie of a post:

Click = big
This is a big one. Sony better pay attention!

Hi Mike.
Would have bought one sooner, but haven’t been in the stated for years — and I’m not a big ebay buyer (at least not from o/s). Actually wanted a PRS-700 but I fly back to Oz tomorrow :-(
Cheers

I didn’t know you were located in Australia (I didn’t go in-depth into blog or book yet, but had some vague familiarity of both via Teleread). It will be interesting to see if you will be able to buy any eBooks from either Sony in the US or Waterstone’s in the UK — or if jurisdictional rights issues will prevent that!
You can get some freebies here to try:

I always do “free eBook” posts, so use Search here to find those.
Plus, you can to http://www.mobileread.com — where there are a TON of for-free Sony-formatted (LRF, the non-DRMed format) eBooks.
I look forward to your posts. And also hope you have the proper AC charger for yours! (Yikes!)
