Hi All, You can call me Ray and I am a complete virgin to electronic books.

After reading umpteen reviews of umpteen products, it sounded like an eReader would be a good thing to have. So, off to the Kobo store to purchase a water-proof model, as I enjoy reading in the bath. Ordered and waiting.

Come here from a google link and am glad to have found your forum, well maybe. After wading through this thread and that one, my head is spinning.

Do these things (eReaders) take a great deal of maintenance and tweaking, or can they be purchased, plugged in and work worry free as any paper book would? Header this, grayed out that, upgrade forced or freely accepted, etc..........

Sure hope someone can put me at rest or maybe make an offer on a new unused, still in box H2O.
