Welcome to MobileRead.
I once spent a long time recovering from an illness as a child. My parents brought me lots of books to read. Some of them I didn't read again until they were assigned in high school or college.
I've had the Sony Reader for over a year and read more than in any prior year. It brings back the joy and wonderment of reading for me. I've found a lot to read in the free MobileRead download section -- and its already formatted for the Sony Reader!
Glad that you joined. Hope to see more of your postings.
