MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Split Deals Forum into Ebooks and Readers Forums

The mobileread Forum has been extremely helpful and has even saved me some money. So, the following is a small suggestion to make it even better:

Split the "Deals..." Forum into two separate Forums - that would "Ebook Deals..." and "Reader Deals...".

The reason is that - in my assessment - members are either looking for one or the other. New members are especially only looking for reader deals, and the numerous ebook deal threads tend to scroll valid reader deals off the front page.

Then when they use their mobileread Forum deal to get a reader, then they want to see the ebook deals ... and not the readers deals.

Even long-term members who decide they want a new reader, are only looking at the reader deals at that particular time.

It seems to me that it would be a win-win for everyone.
