Hi everyone! I've been a reader of ebooks since long before there was such a thing. I began reading ebooks on my Palm Pilot. I used Project Gutenberg for public domain books and also created ebooks for myself by scanning and OCR. I was intrigued by the early Sony readers but held off buying an ereader until I finally broke down and bought a Kindle Keyboard. Since then I've bought four more Kindles: a Kindle Keyboard for my mom, a Kindle Touch for my son, a Kindle 4NT, and my newest baby, the Kindle Paperwhite. I also have a Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 which is always with me so I can read in the odd moments while waiting for the work shuttle or in line at the bank.

I love this community and have been reading the forums for well over a year, but I never got around to registering. However the interesting discussions in the Amazon Kindle forum right now about the Kindle PW have made me want to jump in and add my 2 cents, or at least participate in the poll about screen satisfaction. (For the record, I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who got a lovely screen on my PW.)

Guess that's it for now. Thanks for reading!
