Speaking of the Babylonian Talmud...

Dear Brewt,

I have been putting off buying an ereader (probably a Kindle) until the price comes down, but would spring for it now if I could get the Babylonian Talmud. I'm not a software geek, so I don't know if the formats you mentioned in your post would be compatible with an ebook model. Should I just get the http://www.amazon.com/Babylonian-Tal...2228272&sr=1-1"]Rodkinson Translation[/URL],
or are there better ones out there? I used to use the Soncino on CD-ROM; I have emailed them to ask if they're planning an ebook edition. I use a Linux computer now, so I don't think I can use their CD-ROM's anymore.
