Thanks for the warm welcome all. How do I back it up with a Mac? I am looking that up on Google now but if you can tell me I would appreciate grizzled veteran's point of view!

PS. My wife swore up and down how she prefers paper but she is a voracious reader. I just felt an ereader would be perfect for her since she and our 2 year old son travel with me from time to time (I am in sales for a tech company) it would be simple and if she bangs out a book fast she could easily download another easily. So far 2 days into it she is hooked
