My name is Ann, I live in Norway, and have just ordered an Astak EZ Reader Pro. I read ebooks some years ago on a Compaq pocket PC, but haven't had any ebook experience since. I work in a library where we hopefully will soon be offering ebooks to our patrons.
Other than that, I'm a Mac user, used to be a professional musician, and am working on an MA in Chinese at the university here.
I chose the Astak specifically because it can handle Chinese.
I found a lot of useful info here before I ordered my Astak, and am looking forward to getting into the ebook world.
