* When buying/searching for eBooks do you search by format or by eReader?
Book first then format (ePub for preference than something open - html/rtf etc)
I never bother searching by eReader
<rant>and before anyone pipes up I don't call it an eReader in my house, I call it a book - the same as I call my DVD recorder a DVD, my DAB Micro System a HiFi and I say tape it instead of Sky+ it, it's easier that way</rant>
* Do you know what format/s your eReader can read when searching or do you expect all eBooks to be read by your eReader?
I know the formats my books can read.
* What reasons made you chose your eReader? Was it format or device based"?
The BeBook was format based (open source, large amount of formats etc)
The Jetbook Lite was device based (Small & Sturdy - I just wanted something that was easy to carry around)

Getting the right format in the UK is not much of an issue since those upstart colonists started to refuse to sell us stuff, most everything is ADE ePub now.
