Hi all

So here's my predicament:

I have been in touch with the people at Soribook about purchasing a reader. The only hold up has been the fact that the programs that will come with the reader are all in Korean. I was told that they would be able to convert them into English in the near future. In the mean time they have now offered me the Soribook with only Windows CS OS. I am not much of a computer buff so I'm not sure if I will be able to load other software that will enable me to read ebooks. I enquired about Mobipocket and was told that they have not got it to work thus far (something to do with Soribook having an ARM11 processor).

What would you recommend I do? Are there programs out there that will suffice until I get the English versions of the apps (I am looking to be able to read pdf's among other things)? Should I just wait patiently for an English Soribook?

Thanks in advance!
