Welcome elemenoP and roobaroo, have fun with your Sony reader ! I've had mine a couple of weeks now, and I'm really glad I decided on the Sony. It's a great device !

At least you library has ebooks. Mine doesn't

They're still "looking into it".

The conversation I usually have goes like this:
"I bought an e-reader"
"A what ?"
"Something you can read books on digitally. You know, ebooks ?"
"Why would you need something like THAT ? Can't you read paper books like normal people ?"

E-readers aren't that common in Belgium.
