Got the same question, but with a little twist
I just bought a PRS-300, hoping I could rent/borrow books. I am from California, but now live in Asia. I read mostly fiction novels -- crime, thrillers, mysteries, etc., during commute on public transport, and occasionally, some management books (tend to hurt my head). For the most part, I read a book only once (too little time, too many unread books out there!), so renting would seem to make more sense to me. The question is, what are the best e-libraries/websites that offer this? Getting a library card from some libraries in California is not a problem for me as I can ask my friend/relative to apply for one & mail over to me. However, I read somewhere in the forum that most Calif. libraries do not offer ebook. Any advice/pointer is much appreciated!
