Hi everybody,

I am a self-confessed GNU/Linux geek from Florida. I am new to the world of dedicated ebook readers. Until now, I read my books (mostly in FB2 format or TXT) on either my Nokia N800 Internet Table and my Nokia 5230 'Neuron' telephone. In the former case, I used FB reader, in the latter ZXReader.

I have a collection of ebook of just under 12'000 book which I manage with the fantastic calibre application which I run on my Ubuntu GNU/Linux desktop.

I am not looking at various options to get a dedicated ebook reader and I hope that folks around here can help me get the right one.

Though I now live in Florida for over 10 years, I am originally from Europe and my mother tongue is Russian.

Cheers!

"Farhad"
