Hmmm....maybe i should just get a Kindle on my European account. *SIGH* This is all too confusing to figure out so quickly.
About the danish library (Det Kongelige Bilbliotek), they offer mainly Pdfs and files that need to be read with a program called 'ebrary reader'. You cannot download it though because the link to that page is broken.
I assume that I may be better off with a big screen for some of these files.
So lets see...I could save 400 DKK by buying a Kindle in the US, which would probably work fine over here...hopefully have access to the same books (Hopefully!!) and have fewer problems converting files than I would if I were converting Amazon files to a non-kindle device....
So maybe a Kindle is a good idea.
I think I will primarily use this for pleasure reading, though if possible it could be nice to use it for academic purposes...although who knows if the texts I will need will be available in ebook format?
