First off have a look at the thread https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=144785 which will save us typing it all again.

Read https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=144587 for a list of sites to get books.

For many of the things you want to do with your PE you will need to upgrade to 2.2 so read https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=134237

For some the update was easy, others found it not so - learn from what is there and you should have an easy update, but as always if you have problems or questions just ask.

The other thing to remember the PE is not a phone and as a consequence apps that require phone features will not work, or if they do there will be some features missing - google maps is a good example, it works but you have to tell it where you are if you want local information as there is no GPS built into eDGe devices.
