Hello from Oklahoma!

I've been coveting an ebook reader for a long time but none of them have seemed worth the expense. Now the prices are dropping so I'm starting to think seriously about getting one. However, I'm concerned that as soon as I do, something exponentially better is going to drop.

For instance, Toshiba's Blio looks great and coupled with their soon-to-be-released Libretto W100, I don't think it can be beat. Except that the Libretto is going to cost a little over $1000.00, so that's out of the question. Waaaay out of the question.

What's a girl to do? What e-reader will give me the most bang for my buck? Has anyone heard any rumors about new readers entering the market soon?

Hya Ecurious. Good to have your company. My advice would be to buy NOW whatever suits you that's currenty available. If you wait for the latest 'coming soon' dedicated ebook reading device, you'll wait for ever and never know what you're missing meantime. Best wishes. Neil
