Exactly - I'm restricted to pbooks at the library, and I have a lot of pbooks at home which I'm gradually trying to replace with ebooks where possible. But I'm not buying pbooks any more unless there's a really good reason.

I never used to go into bookshops unless I'd just been paid as I was almost certain to buy something, but on my last 3 visits to bookshops I haven't bought anything. I've also cut my number of Amazon orders since I bought my 505 (used to be 2/3 per month of books, now none!). I've now got over 150 unread ebooks so I'm not going to run out any time soon.

I've got to the point where the library annoys me because it restricts me to pbooks, even though using the library is the only way I can afford my reading habit. Free ebooks are helping somewhat at the moment, but I resent my ebook reading being interrupted by my library books, which are often books I REALLY want to read.
