Lurker, now posting

Hi everyone!

I'm based in Toronto, longtime avid reader, relative newcomer to e-books.

Got an early iPad and have been reading on that for the last few years, as well as on an Android tablet.

The eyes started hurting, so I looked around for an eInk reader. Settled on a Kobo Aura H2O.

I collected all my books together, ran them through Calibre to get them as legible ePubs, and have put them on my reader. Am enjoying all the free advice around here.

Keeping my eye out for a reasonably well-powered colour e-reader. Someday Triton eInk or Mirasol will end up on something reasonable.

Sorry, tigerinexile but we're not allowing any more Canadians to join MobileRead until you stop sending those damn Alberta Clippers down here.

Aw, I didn't think you'd fall for that one. Shoot

Anyway, welcome to MobileRead.
