Pretty cool. Bring a 1 meter tower of books to Sony during IFA and get a free Sony Reader PRS-T2

Seen over on http://t3n.de

The first 100 visitors to get a 1 meter tower of their old books to the Sony store on Potsdamer Platz in Berlin on Thursday at 7pm will get it switched for a new Sony Reader PRS-T2.

Pretty cool… Sad it’s just going down in Berlin.

The Silverlight based agenda has a plug-in free version for browsers that don’t render it. The link is shown if Silverlight is not detected, but shows up a little torn on Mobile Safari, so here is the direct link to the HTML only version of the agenda: http://www.microsoft.com/switzerland/msdn/de/techdays/AgendaSimple.aspx
