Well it is done! I am so excited I am running around the boat squealing. (Hmm maybe that is why all the other yachties think I am slightly mad....?) Anyway you might be asking yourself what is it she has done?

Well...............I finally ordered my reader! Yep after much reading of posts and researching and biting of fingernails it came down to cost. Bugger but that is the way of it when you live on a boat. I have ordered the Hanlin V5 from DA Books in Melbourne.

Living in NZ having come from Oz and living on a boat with limited funds makes for choosing a reader a very indepth problem. However this one allows me to do what I really want which is to read. I can download whilst travelling whereever. I make use of public internet cafes in most places so ease of access has to be one of the issues.

Lots of formats, price, ease of use and in our home country for warranty reasons. VERY important! So those are my reasons for choosing this reader from that particular company - oh and the fact that DA book services has a person on this forum that has been helpful, polite and available also swayed my choice.

I have to wait nearly 4 weeks to get it (being Christmas and so on they are out of stock) but I will post my findings when it arrives. I do so hope this is all going to go well.

ps:- have I mentioned that I am extremely excited?
