What does a ripe Paul Robeson look like?

I picked one when I saw blushing. It has been ripening on my counter. It's my first experience with "black" tomatoes. How can I tell when it is ready to eat?

I can't wait!!!

It sounds like it's almost ready, but let's not jump to any conclusions. I'll give you my address so you can send it to me and I'll confirm the diagnosis.
