Hi, I have a Kindle 1, and love it. But its pretty pricey to buy books all the time. My library does not offer e books, but I wouldn't mind paying NYC, the place I learned to love libraries, to get a card.

I did try to use Igor's script to get the kindle fix, and totally crashed my computer. My computer guy said "when it's a hack its for someone a lot younger than you" Not flattering, but sadly, true.

So, plan B. I want a reader just for the library, It has to have type sizes as big as kindle, I have bad eyes, and be cheap. Since we are talking library books, I don't need much memory.

Also, easy to use...my computer skills are demonstrably lacking.

any ideas?

Thanks
