"None of the above"

Work offshore, oilfield work - could be 4 or 5 weeks on a rig..... have previously, many years ago, run out of books to read.
No laptop in those days, or satellite TV feeds..... not a pleasant situation.

So the ereader has been a great way to save lugging books around.

Got a Sony as i'm in Asia and the Kindle is too locked down.... and the original kindle was too horribly beige and Dell-like anyway ;-)

so Sony 505 it was....

Now a 350, as I saw a work colleagues and couldn't resist the improved screen - and, as I had my 505 as 'backup' (just in case) I could do the Boroda hack on the 350 to replace the font with Fontin. Yay.
