I'm an English teacher in Korea, and an avid reader. I sort of ignored the whole problem of the thought of a miniature apartment being filled with my books. I also ignored the problem of the cost of English books in a foreign land. I love my job, but I love books too.
Second strange aspect - My laptop is a Linux (An Asus eeePC to be exact), and so it won't work with a lot of the eReaders out there.
I wanted a Kindle originally, but it's not worth the price if I can't have connectivity (Korea has a closed cell phone system so I believe it won't work).
As for Sony's theirs doesn't say anything about a Linux interface.
Neither does the SoriBook.
The eSlick may interface with Linux, but I'm not sure what kind, and it's not available in Korea.
HELP!
I'm sure there are or were others out there in similar predicaments...
Please help,
Casi
