Hi, my name is Bill and I reside in Indiana. I found this site on a google search for ebook readers. For the last couple of months I've collected quite a few books in electronic format, mostly chemistry, biology and medicine. At the moment I'm readiond them on my desk top. I'm a biology pre-med major here at IU. I never thhought about it before but some sort of reader would be great for school work. All I can think about is the day when I wont have to lug around all those heavey book. I'd also like to create a carry along reference library (alot of the books I have on my computer are huge chem. and medical reference books). To be able to carry all that in a small package seems ideal. Many of the texts have color images...is there a reader that could handle that??? All my files are PDF, DJVU, or PDB.

Nice to be here,
Bill

Hi Bill, great you discovered this community. We are all a bunch of crazy technophiles, so don't expect objective answers. Still, you should keep a close eye on the Sony Reader and perhaps also the iRex Iliad, both of which received a lot of coverage here at Mobileread recently.
