Hi everybody,

I just happened into this forum after doing a little news reading about the new Kindle. I've read quite a few books on my old Handspring palm device, and I also use MS Reader and I just installed Mobireader on my Palm Treo 650 phone. The Kindle just doesn't do it for me, ideally I'd like a Sony 505 that read .lit and mobibook formats. The E Ink screen seems perfect, now just to tie it to hardware that I like at a digestible (bad pun intended, sorry...) price.

I'm an IT guy from Central Kentucky, if I'm not working or riding my motorcycles I am probably reading. So far, my favorite book format is still hardback - but the e-readers are almost there.
