Hello,
I'm in Cardiff and have just bought an Sony Reader four days ago. As they are not for sale in the UK I ordered it from an Ebay seller. I'm now downloading a lot of books from Progect Gutenberg because the Sony Connect store doesn't seem interested in selling ebooks to overseas readers.

Yet there seems to be an increasing interest in ebook readers here in the UK. Here's a link to an article in the London Guardian in which Andrew Marr (a presenter on Radio 4 and former news correspondent) tries out an Irex Iliad. He is reluctantly impressed.

I found this forum from a link on the Wikipedia entry for the Sony Reader. What a useful place.
