Android and Kobo reader from Vancouver

Hi everyone
I have been a PC user since 1986. But DW just got a Kobo reader for our European trip to France in September, so I bought a Samsung Galaxy Gio for $67 for Future Shop (Bell Paygo locked) and unlocked it with FastGSM for Rogers and Telcel paygo plans. Also used it with SFR in France.

So I am newbie to the world of eReaders. Been using Calibre for about 4 months and decided that it is worth it to start engaging.

We are an all Windows household with 2xXP and 2xVista computers in our 2 homes. We are long time AAPL shareholders, just not users.

Welcome kc!

Congrats on the Lions' great victory, although the Bombers made it interesting at the end!

Yes I was wondering when they would come to life. I had high expectations for a cliff hangar and found myself hoping for the Bombers iin the second half (plus over half the people at the party were Pegger fans!).
