Hi to all
Hi all. I joined today and have an ebookwise. Just got it and I am so excited about finding some ebooks that I have been wanting to read for ages!
I hope to make it a 2-way street with info, so thanks to all in advance. Oops, I'm an Aussie btw |

Hello ChrissySh, and welcome to MobileRead. I believe that our DixieGal totes an eBookwise reader. She lives in Alabama, which is the majestic state in which I was reared. There are also a couple of other Aussies that hang around the forums and I'm sure they'll introduce themselves at some point.
Since I live in the USA, I had the option of getting a Kindle from Amazon.com and I just love having a dedicated eBook reader. I'm now learning about building books using the various programs available. We're glad you've joined us. |

Hi and thanks everyone for the welcome. The ebookwise isn't available in Aussie, so when its purchased from USA it comes here with no warranty and needs a converter as our power supply is 240V, but it was worth it. I love it and saves me carrying 3 books when I go away. My escape from work and stress is to get buried in a book! (much to hubby's disgust lol).
I hope I can contribute as much as I take from the forum. Only a beginner, but I'll get there. Thanks again |

It is a pain with ebook readers being so under-developed in the land of OZ... err AUS but thats true of almost any tech.
My first choice these days it overseas/web suppliers to anything I want to buy... the only draw back is shipping charges for the heavier items. But I have a working figure in mind before I look local. |
