Hi folks,
I'm a fairly avid reader, with the misfortune of living in a small town without a bookstore. Since I already do most of my book shopping on line, ebooks and a reader would seem like a no-brainer, but until my wife saw the Oprah episode featuring the Kindle, I'd never heard of them. Probably should have logged on as 'living in a bubble man'.
I happened across MobileRead today while searching for info on the Kindle and the Sony readers. I live in Canada, so the Kindle isn't an option right now, but I was trying to decide if I should hold out until it becomes available here, or go with the Sony now. Seems like I've found far more than I could have hoped for. Can't wait to dig into the rest of the forums!

Bruce (aka northman) out.
