Don't waste your time on digitalbok.no. All their Norwegian ebooks are in the pdf format which, as far as I'm concerned, is not a good format for ebooks. A big pro about digitalbok.no though is that they don't use DRM, instead they watermark their Norwegian books so you can use it on any device you want, but they can find out who's distributing their files if you do start sharing them.

Ebook readers are hard to get hold of here. Digitalbok.no only sels mobi readers as that's what most of their english books are formatted in. The Sony readers, which is what I want, aren't sold anywhere here. I intend to purchase either the 505 or 700 the next time I go to England. I havn't quite decided which one to get yet.

Do let me know if you see anyone actually selling ebook readers here in Norway, other than at digitalbok.no.

By the way, if you want well formated classics, I really recommend you take a look at www.feedbooks.com. That's by far my fav site for free ebooks.

P.S. Welcome to the forum.
Hi, I've never used digitalbok, just heard about them, so thanks for the info and for the info about feedbooks. I can't believe I've missed that site.
Piximaniasells the Cybook gen 3 for 2899 kr inkl MVA which is the only other place I've found with norwegian prices.
