After all, the bother of 'checking out' library ebooks over-and-over-again in order to re-read after the 'expiration date' has passed, it's just too much hassle. Of course, I'm one of those who tends to come back to titles I enjoyed.

I mean, you spent the money for the Cybook, why not have her buy the ebooks she wants to read and store those ebooks to a DVD for later enjoyment?

I hear what your saying 100% but i agree with Julie... My wife enjoys just getting books to read... Not buy. I'm the same way.. I've already sent an e-mail back to booksonboard.com about sending it back and i'll sending bookeen e-mail about it as well.. My wife is bad about getting books back on time so i thought is was a great idea.. I could put it on our asus eee but i'm trying to get something small and great on batts..
