    Just to add, the Silver is now out of stock but the Red one looks good - these are not being made anymore as 2 new models coming out, having looked at all 3 i would go for this model over the new ones for a number of reasons - mainly being the 6 inch screen combined with the erganomics of the page turning button and the card slots make it wipe the floor on the pocket edition and the Touch edition is a lot more than i feel needed and costs a lot more.

    IIRC the red version was a JL exclusive :)

    Stonking price for them, and I beleive Waterstones are currently selling off the accessories at about a third of the normal price as well :)

    Just been into our local Waterstones:


    Leather replacement Case reduced from £25 to £7.99
    Reader Cover with Light (PRSA-CL1) from £35 to £17.50
    Advanced Screen Protector from £8 to £4.99

    but dont bother trying the one in Leamington as i just got 2 of each for our readers and they have no stock left. :rotfl:


    WHSmiths also have offers on the covers online where the Leather one is 50% off at £12.50.
  • John Lewis website is playing up now! Won't let me beyond putting my email address in! Anyone else having a problem?

    I'm getting worried now that I will miss out, but the CS phone number seems to go to Indian call centre, and not overly excited about having to have a non understandable conversation when credit card etails are involved!

    Have you tried signing in first - through the Customer service section and then going to basket?

    I gave up in the end! I phoned them to order, but at the end of the call I was informed they couldn't take my electron card, so it was a waste of time!

    I bought one from Waterstones in the end. It was £179 but I got cashback, and also £5 worth of points which I can redeem against my next order (no douby an e book lol)

    I chose the pocket one which i think is differnt to the JL model, and I got one in pink as I'm a bit mad about pink gadgets hehe

    Just waiting for it to be delivered now
  • Ordered mine online from John Lewis yesterday afternoon, no problems. Waiting for delivery now!:j
