Shhh, nag program, I'll post and intro

The nag program insists that it's nice to de-lurk and introduce myself.

I'm Ed Burkhead. Hobbies are reading, flying-related (currently medically grounded but working on that), photography. Work is computer technical support.

I read a book or two using my old Ipaq but generally found paper better. Now, with the good crop of readers, I'm looking to get a good e-book reader.

My first choice would be to buy DRM free books. If I have to buy DRM, I wish I could shop Amazon. But, I don't like that their Kindle uses a proprietary DRM. I'd hate to have years of book-buying be hostage to the health and goodness of any one company.

So, I'll probably look at the CyBook and Sony first, Kindle only third.

Ed
