Hello from the top of the world (well close anyway)

Hello,

I'm a proud new owner of a Sony PRS 505, I think it's a great ebook reader (although it is my first). I don't really have any complaints other than not being able to purchase books via the sony ebookstore (I live in Iqaluit, Nunavut, Canada).
I've downloaded a tonne of stuff from Project Gutenburg and downloaded my 100 classics from the sony store.
Purchased some stuff from ebooks.com and converted them from M$oft Reader to sony .lrf, not really tedious but it is a small hassle nonetheless.

I've sent a PM to Leaping Gnome requesting a favour to buy some sony vouchers for me, also checked out a service called global gophers, they advise that they can purchase these and mail the certificates to me (via paypal) although it's gonna cost me $257 CAD for $200 worth of sony credits...

Great forum that was very helpful last week when I recieved my new reader.

Cheers
