Just now saw this....I've been following the ebook field ever since ebooks began to appear on computers, wrote a few technical articles about the field along the way but it never really convinced me to buy into it until many classic and backlist books became available for free (google, feedbooks, etc.) -- after checking out the Sony Reader (at my local Target store) that was enough to get me in. ... the Kindle store and it's "promise" of 9.99 bestsellers was also a draw but that seems to have taken a beating at the hands of the greedy tradition-bound publishers.
I'm enjoying seeing more and more books available and released in ebook format and am looking forward to more and better and compatible drm-free ebook readers.
