Hello from Greece
In greek the word vivliofagos literary translates as bookeater
(as in someone that reads fast and reads a lot). I buy mass-market paperback novels cause they're cheaper and I download my computer science reference/tutorial books in pdf, chm or DjVu format, via "alternative" channels. I WILL buy a Sony reader as soon as the price tag drops below the $100 threshold. I think. That's all for now. |

Good to have your company, Viv. And there are $100- Sony readers on offer right now. Mind you -- as usual -- these offers might not apply to us Europeans. Cheers. Neil

Hello and welcome to MR. I'm taking a break from reading Aristophanes - I love ancient Greek, but I need to brush up more on my modern Greek. I hope that you are able to get a Sony Reader soon - I use mine to read PDFs that I make of ancient Greek authors, it saves me a lot of money.
