I usually have my Reader propped up so I am reading hands-free, and I use my pinky fingernail on my left hand in a right-to-left gesture most of the time (sometimes I use the buttons).
I read while I'm eating, with my Sony in a bookstand on the left of my lapdesk and my food on the right. I can keep my left pinky fingernail clean no matter what I'm eating! ![]() Never having had an eReader before, I took the raised frame for granted. It will make it easier to apply a screen protector, and I think it looks elegant!! ![]() The only thing I have doubts about is the size of the buttons and their placement. I was hitting the "home" button when I meant to turn a page ( ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Fi |

thanks for the confirmation mel ! it's very interesting to know that. i wonder what the logic is (i.e. is it similar to the communication theory left to righ = going towards the future). anyway it's quite surprising (but interesting) to see that apple uses both configurations in their devices.

![]() I've been trying out Zelda's friend's suggestion of "pushing" the page (a gesture from Right-to-Left) with my thumb for the past few days. I like using it on the 600 since that way I don't encounter the frame. It is taking me a little time to get used to it as I've been using the LtoR gesture for many months, but it is seems to be a little gentler on my arthritic thumb knuckle. So. . .Thanks, Zelda's Friend!! ![]() |

No, just the standard one. I saw the light cover for the PRS-505 and it seemed pretty horrible to me; the light coverage was very uneven, and the light diffuser made the screen look very "foggy".

"Autumn" in the broadest sense possible, I suppose- I was said to wait for the end of the month, but it's here

I was concerned that it might have added a lot of weight. I'm anxious to see what the M-Edge people will market. I liked the look of the light they provided for the Kindle, but they told me it was too long for the the 505 cover I purchased for the 600. The 505 cover fits the 600 fairly well and has a sleeve or slot on the right hand side that would fit a light like the one they sell for the Kindle. Right now, I use a mighty-bright clip, but would prefer something incorporated with the cover.

I use a model similar to the UltraThin LED Book Light and I must say that M-Edge really works out well with the 505. I'm not that sure with the 600, given the glare issues...

Does the 600 have an oleophobic treatment on the surface of the screen like others touch devices on the market?
