Hello from Memphis, TN, home of the best BBQ, Graceland, and... not much else
I'm a long-time reader and have only in the last year started moving into ebooks. I started with my iPhone a year ago, using ereader, to read some books and short stories. I had no plans to get a dedicated ebook reader for quite some time.
However, two months ago, an opportunity presented itself with a Circuit City going out of business locally. We found the Sony 505 for less than half the cost and bought it impulsively. I wish I'd bought the other one they had there, as well, as I didn't realize what a fantastic find this was!
Of course, as with most impulsive buys, I hadn't done my research. I use Macs at home and the first few weeks of figuring out how to update firmware, load books in, activating ADEs, etc had me pulling my hair out. That's how I found this site, and I'm so glad to have found a great resource to help me answer questions and find content.
I read romances, classics, sci-fi and some mysteries and suspense as the mood strikes. I'm greatly enjoying the ability to have dozens of books at my finger tips without having to take up the space for them!
