My first purchased ebook was "Riding The Bullet" by Stephen King on an IBM WorkPad c3 (a black IBM-branded Palm V). According to ereader.com (back when it was Peanut Press I think?) I bought it on 20 March, 2001.

I don't recall what or when my first Gutenberg book was, but I'm sure it would have been something by Wells or Verne on a Palm around 1997.

Cheers,
Simon.
