Dr. Drib - Since you do not live in the US (as I don't) - why the K2? Same screen and size as the Sony...
I can download books due to the fact that I have a U.S. address and a bank account in the U.S.

Also, the Kindle library is exciting to me. Although I read and make fun of zombie books, to include mutilation, decapitation, blood, guts, murder, dead cats and microwaves, etc., my true love is Literature rather than genre fiction. (I DO love to read genre fiction, by the way.) Literature, however, will spin me in my grave and put a smile on my face. (But don't tell anyone -- hahaha - I want everyone here to think I'm a low-brow admirer and creator of cutting-edge [pun intended] bloody humor! I want to get people to think outside their prescribed little boxes of friendly discourse....Stepford Wives, indeed!!!) "Rock the boat/Don't rock the boat, baby" A melding of cultural ethos.

I'm also waiting for J.M.G. LeClesio's work to come out in ebook. (He's the most recent winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature.) Going back to the U.S. will allow me to retrieve my Athenuem American First Edition hardbacks from storage. They're quite valuable and have been taken care of by me for about 30 years. His prose is beautiful and scintillating; and he has something to say about the Human Condition and about Culture.
