I'm another Palm alumnus.

I had four or five of them altogether, but I must have started reading on my first PalmPilot.

I can't remember what the first book was, though. I know I read some probably-illegal stuff like Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, some Baen Free Library stuff, and some out-of-copyright stuff, including Pride and Prejudice, but I can't remember what was first.

It was very much an emergency backup, though. It wasn't until eInk that I was really happy to read from a screen.
