Hello e-book readers!

I am the new kid on the block - well... the block may be new, but I am getting older, however, I can still remember the days when I was a kid and had plenty of time to read!
So, as I mentioned, I always liked to read and, in fact, on my night table there is always a stack of books.

I have found quite a few books in electronic format on the Internet but I always hated it to read them on the computer. There is nothing like lying in bed, with a book in your hands. Plus, spending most of my day in front of the monitor, I don't see it funny at all to spend more hours at home, reading.
So, that being said, I decided to take advantage of the 21st century technology and get myself an e-book reader.

After browsing the Internet in search for information, I decided: it will be a Sony PRS-600! I have to admit that at the beginning I was tempted to get a Kindle, but I think this has too many drawbacks, so, Sony is my final answer!

That's it, for now. I am looking forward to interesting discussions on this virtual community.
