I bought the Fictionwise eBookwise wise not only because of the price but because of the LACK of bells and whistles.
I had'nt even heard of ereaders before seeing the Kindle on Amazon. I am an Amazon junkie and because of this I have STACKS of books everywhere. When I saw the Kindle I imagined my night stand being barren except for a little reader device and got all excited!
However, the Kindle seemed to be overloaded with features. And I couldnt fathom why I would want a reader that wasnt backlit! I thought, "Man, if I could just get a reader that I could download books into AND that had a backlight!!" I can afford a Kindle but it seemed that I'd be wasting money on features I wouldnt use when that money could be spent on MORE BOOKS!
So I started researching and found this board. WOW! I found out some great information AND found the eBookwise reader. It was exactly what I was looking for.
I am, without doubt, not a techno geek. I simply wanted a reader that had a backlight and was light to carry about. The eBookwise is perfect for me and I adore it.
Oh, and let me not forget to thank all the posters here who have been an invaluable source of all things ebook!!
