Project Guttenberg has a ton of free books that are available to everyone.
Borrowing eBooks was one of the points I considered. Unfortunately, our local library system (13 branches) has NO fiction eBooks and I was told that with budgetary constraints there are no planned eBook purchases in the next couple of years. With that fact taking the whole ePub format issue off the table off the table, Kindle was my "hands-down" choice as the reader that most completely matched my criteria for a reader. After using it for two weeks, I am extremely pleased with the Kindle.
