Just purchased ereader after reading these forums so thought I'd join the community.
Hi guys,
Just purchased a new Sony PRS-505 after spending most of yesterday and today reading these very forums for advice. I think I've made the right decision and will spend the next couple of years enjoying my reader and the books I read on it. I hope I am able to contribute to the site going forward. |

Congratulations and welcome to MR, Wolfsnake.
I've had my 505 for about a year and a half and love it. Have you found some good book sites yet? The MR Wiki has a page dedicated to free ebook sites. MR has free ebooks that have been beautifully formatted by some very dedicated MR members. ePub format and Sony BBeB / lrf format. Also, Free and for purchase ebooks .. smashwords.com and baen.com Plus Baen has a free library You can explore using Calibre to manage your library of DRM free books and Kovid, the creator, frequents the forums here. We even have a dedicated Calibre forum. Here are some book search engines for finding and comparing book prices.. AddAll, eBookPrice.Info, and Inkmesh. Have fun with your new 505 and with continuing to explore MR. |

Good to have your company, Wolf. You've got your hands on a neat wee gizmo there. My 505 is a real workhorse, and never the glimmer of a problem. Best wishes. Neil
