Hi agin

Yes Yvanleterrible we rotate the display 90 deg.My wife is reading from the EEE right now.She loves it!... Maybe too much lol.Its about the same size as an A5 book and looks and feels like a real book.Can you really go wrong for the money? $250 aussie.

DMcCunney Interesting what you say about pdb and prc files. i havent come across them. I guess book designer will convert to these formats. what programs do you use to convert from pdf?.I have up to now been trying to convert to fb2 format as I was led to believe it was fb readers chosen format.but its ahard to find conversion software that works really well. Just obtained Asus EEE for dummies online which has lots of useful hints on the machine and linux.

But seriously change the screen colour to a grey colour to prevent eye strain. set up what keys you need to operate the Fbreader software and youre away.Sit down hold it in youre fingers like a book, grab a coffee and enjoy. Plus you can skype or browse the net wirelessly and watch avi movies no worries.only downside so far is battery life 3 hours so ive ordered a bigger beefier battery which will give me 5 hours playtime.

ok thanks for the info everyone and great forum
