Hello everyone,

having enjoyed this forum sofar, I find it is time, to introduce myself. My Name is Klaus and I am into ebooks allready vor 4-5 years starting with a HP TC1100. HP and Fujitsu produced tablets long time before "Apple" even knew they were existing.

Nevermind, I had to realise, that ebooks have become even more enjoyable on more modern equipment, partly specially designed for this purpose. I therefore recently helped myself to a HTC-Flyer, which I now carry with me wherever I go.

My hobies, if you could call them as such, are Latin, language and literature, and textadventures, both easily to be practised on a "tab".

To start with I do want introduce 2 links, one of which is related to English Medieval literature, but not only

http://sceti.library.upenn.edu/SCETIcollections.cfm

and the enthusiast of medieval literature, most of it facsimile, will appreciate the variety, and

http://www.archive.org/details/texts

(if not already known) for ebooks up to modern time in various formats.

I very much enjoyed the fact, that in this forum books are not only introduced as download links but that some reference is given to the live and work of the autor too. This definately adds to quality of this forum.

I hope this quality will continue as is and to spend many happy hours therein.
