Smile Hello from Taiwan

This is Ultravox from Taiwan. I am going to survey my first e-reader & happy to find this wonderful forum.

I like the kindle device, but it is not convenient for the people not live in US. It need some "tricks" to buy e-book from Amazon for non-US owners.

I hope through this forum, I will find my ideal e-reader device & the channel that I can buy e-books without the region limitation.

I am happy to join this forum.

Hi Ultravox and welcome to MobileRead. I've spent time in both Taipei and Tainan and found everyone very friendly and the food EXCELLENT. Are eBooks popular there?

Hi cassidym,

Of course the food here is EXCELLENT. Great to know you have been to Taiwan. The ebooks are not popular here yet, since infrastructure still under development.... from e-content, copy right, ebooks channel, to availability of e-readers...

Funny thing is many e-reader devices are made in Taiwan & China.

I like to read english fictions, so I would like to have this fancy gadget.

My favorite restaurant was the Focca Home for Overseas Chinese. Do you know if it's still there?

I used to studying in Taiwan for quite a few years.
I miss the food there, especially dumpling.
