I also miss having a dictionary since getting rid of my ebookwise. So, I am anticipating getting a 600.

I am concerned with that a bit too as I'm a computer engineer by trade and hope to use/access technical books and information as well. I may need a different reader for that but hey...that's an excuse to get another type, eh?

Thanks for the welcome. I haven't tried out many pdfs on it yet, but will soon.

You can also download free ebooks right here at MR. They are books that are in the public domain and have been lovingly formatted by some of MR's members. Enjoy.
Happy Reading.

Ah yes! I really appreciate that. One of the main things that pushed me over the edge to buying was the amazing quantity of public domain classic lit etc. Thank You!
