Friends:

I've purchased a new Bookeen Cybook III which I expect to receive any day from NAEB, LLC. It has been awhile since I ordered it but I'm prepared to be patient. The price was certainly right.

I wanted something relatively lightweight that I could use to read ebooks with during the day. Good thing too since this device isn't backlit which means I can't use it in bed.

I use my iPAQ 3715 to read late into the night. I like the small size of the iPAQ because when I fall asleep holding it near my eyes it doesn't wake me up when it falls on me. I must admit to having lost it for a week when it got buried in the covers.

I've always loved reading and having tools that enable you to read anywhere and anytime is the best of all worlds.

I also own a Nokia 800 which is also a fine ebook reader especially using FBReader.

I'm looking forward to learning from all of you experts.

Laura
