• Ebook Reader – but rip off Britain stops me

    by  • 6th November 2007 • Uncategorized

    For very long time I am contemplating to buy an ebook, usually they were extremely expensive ( the eRex ) or didn’t had the MobiPocket® read functionality – Sony ( as I have a collection of ebook in that format I would love to be able to read them on the ebook reader, not only my phone ) Finally Gizmodo is reporting :

    Ebook Reader: Bookeen Cybook V3 Puts a Soundtrack to Your eBooks

    price is decent in States $350 what translates to £170 real money … while the UK shop asks for £250 !!!! That is insane. I would order from States for delivery over the pond by a little mule but his holidays are not in mid December( estimate delivery time as they have high demand ) so he would be able to pickup the package.

    For now, Bookeen you are loosing $350 as I am not going to buy it for your ridiculous $500 price in Britain. Unless something happens and I’ll end up in NYC in mid-late December.
