I’m a proud owner of a Cybook Gen3 since yesterday.
I have read eBooks for years in Palm’s, Pocketpc’s Tabletpc’s and Umpc’’s (I still do), and now I could not resist to go further and buy this new baby.
Congratulations to all of the members and the outstanding good info you are sharing in these forums. You are helping a lot (I’m an example of that).
Best,

Welcome to the site. My wife's maiden name was Harriman. Probably no relation. I understand it was a title for the servants of King Henry (Harry's man) so there are lots of unrelated people.

Hi DaleDe
Tank you for your kind welcome words. My compliments to your wife too.
My name is not Harriman, just a nick name I use sometimes online, borrowed from one of the most impressive (for me at least) SiFi personas: Delos David Harriman, the main character from Robert Anson Heinlein’s “The Man Who Sold The Moon”, a business man who pursues his dream from childhood of going to the moon and (in a parallel world to ours) makes the private sector the ones who finance and build the first rocket who goes to the moon.
