Greetings
I'm new to e-reading--have never done so before--never downloaded a book, nada. Waited a year debating whether to buy a Kindle and was a day away from ordering a Kindle 2 when B&N announced the nook. As soon as I saw the specs my mind was made up and I pre-ordered within days of the announcement.
I am looking forward to learning all I can about e-readers, e-books, and dealing with the various formatting issues discussed here, particularly since I am a techno-phobe and will be terrified the first time I download something that isn't from B&N's site. I'm also still researching other readers, just in case the Spring Design lawsuit results in a halt to shipping (which seems doubtful, but I'm a worrier).
Very glad this forum is here. My teenager hates that I am jumping on the e-reader bandwagon and is convinced this will be the death of books and libraries. But I just can't help it--we have no room for all the books I buy, and I very much need a reader with adjustable font sizes so that I can read with or without my reading glasses, etc.
Looking forward to sharing ideas here.
