Hello from an avid reader who spends way too much time on a computer

Which is one of the reasons I need a decent eReader and am here to learn from you all.

Welcome to MobileRead, paaThaka

Lots of good information here, and many differing opinions on the "best" reader.

It would help to let us know where you are from, and what kinds of books you like to read.

Enjoy the forums!

Thanks for the warm welcome!

I'm from EU / Nordics and I read a lot of non-fiction: research papers, long articles, technical papers, maths, physics, psychology and even textbooks.

On the fiction side I don't have so much time to read as I used to, but I'm slowly wading through some of the English and world literature "classics" literature on a random basis (Woolf, Vonnegut, Joyce, Heller, Cela, Bradbury, Hesse, Orwell, Camus, etc).

I have also a spent childhood of reading too many comics, some of which I still revisit occasionally.

Oh, I also listen to audio books, but that's not reading, is it.

Hya PaaThaka. Like you, I spend most of my day (minimum twelve hours, more often many more) in front of a computer monitor. There's nothing quite like relaxing with a no-frills, no-bells-and-whistles simple and good wee reader when you power down for the night. Good to have your new company. Best wishes. Neil
