Little Red Sony Reader spotted in the wild

Some Sony Reader fanboy might, just might get excited to see a red Sony Reader pics in the vast spans that is the Internet. They say the red looks great thanks to its metallic, matte finish, but it’s kind of hard to tell thanks to amazingly bad photos. So until clear photos come from someone that actually knows how to use a digital camera appear, I’m pull the “pics or it didn’t happen” card.

Thanks for the link and the hugely funny post.
Of course the pics are bad. They were taken with one of those $20 digicams you see in blister packs in Virgin MegaStore and chain drugstores. Not even a viewfinder! Plus, I happened to drop it once, so since then I can’t get a properly-centered picture to save my life.

“This weekend, the Reader Digital Book by Sony will be available in Target stores nationwide. Beginning September 14, the PRS-505 model will be featured in the “Discovery Hub” endcap in the electronics section of all 1,634 Target stores. With the purchase of a Reader, consumers will also receive a coupon code to download a free copy of ‘The Other Queen’ by Philippa Gregory from the eBook Store by Sony. ‘The Other Queen’ is slated for release on September 16.”
1634 Target stores, plus Target online, plus Sony online. And you can return them to any Target store. A pretty big plus.
You know, if Target sells just 100-200 per store, they will probably have equaled, or surpassed, Amazon’s total Kindle sales for the year. btw, they just started selling Sony Readers in the UK, too.
