Just wanted to say hi from the UK

Hi all, I just wanted to post a quick thanks to Leaping Gnome for securing me a CONNECT gift token so I can buy books from the UK. I bought the Sony Reader today while on a round trip from England -> Boston -> Orlando -> England and am MORE than happy with it (I just wished I'd bought it in Boston than Orlando because of the cheaper sales tax that you guys have over here!).

I've followed this device for many months now and I've read all kinds of reviews that are mostly negative (although not by much). For what it's worth I believe the negatives are far outweighed by the positives; it's a great piece of kit and I'm more than happy with it.

So, thanks to Leaping Gnome for facilitating my book purchase (and hope we can repeat the business some time in the future), and hello to everyone else!

Nick

Welcome, from another user in the UK. I can also probably help people with connect cards and I take GBP.

Thanks for the hellos. I had a problem with my first reader and exchanged it for a new one, but I still think it's worth every penny!
