Kobois running another sweepstakes. This one involves solving an online jigsaw puzzle.

Contest closes on Christmas Day.

Sony has lowered the price of its new PRS-T1 ereader to $99 through Dec 24. I reviewed the PRS-T1 a while back and I thought it was a nice piece of ereading hardware. The lower price should also be in effect at Sony’s retail partners such as Best Buy, Newegg and elsewhere.
Target is currently selling the Kobo Touch eReader with Offers for $79. This is a $20 discount over the regular price and is available online only.
