I'm guessing you're getting lots of new traffic, with the Kindle buzz and the Wired article.

I've been an e-book reader for, ooh, ten years? Possibly more. I started out with Tome Raider on the Psion 5, and many a happy lunch hour was spent converting Project Gutenberg text files to TR format... Then I moved over to the Palm Tungsten (reluctantly, frankly). Many thousands of pages later I have no regrets!

Now I'm torn between investing in an iPhone and using that as an e-book reader, or taking the plunge for a Cybook.

I'm tending to the latter... Hoping this forum will help me decide!

iPhone or Cybook? Ok, that's tough! Please tell us which one you've decided for

Welcome to the Forum. I've used an iPaq for years to read e books but hope to transition to a dedicated reader with e ink. Really like the lack of power issues with the Sony, Cybooks etc
