I always used to read on my computer, but this has brought a whole new level of freedom for reading, not having to hide in the dark because of reflective screen issues. Not to mention laptop batteries being quickly depleted...

Wow this is wonderful! Another yachtie on a non yachtie forum - now that is a first for me. Yep I have the same problem and my partner has restricted me on the number of books I am allowed on board. That is why I am so excited about getting my ereader. Now of course he is grumbling about the amount of time I am spending downloading books from the internet! But he is happy about the amount of books that I am not bringing on board so it's all good.
I would have thought we would make up a large majority of people using this technology being the weight and room is always an issue on yachts but no-one here has even heard of them let alone seen one! Hmm.........might be onto a new business here.
