Hey hey hey! Welcome our way!

And don't forget, for any reader you buy, you can download a kazillion free classics from places like Project Gutenberg or our own humble abode here at MobileRead!
Thanks I have used the project gutenberg once before to get a book I needed to read for a class but I had completely forgot about it! Looks like you guys have quite the collection as well.

Welcome to MobileRead BongoBong.

The famous E-book Reader Matrix is available in our wiki and is a good source for comparing different models of eBook readers.
thanks for the link I hadn't stumbled across it before and it looks like it could be a big help

Welcome BB! Where in Canada are you from?

I saw today a Canadian (from Vancouver, I think) post that his local Costco has the Aluratek Libre for C$149. You might want to look at that before you make up your mind.

Also Newegg has a sale until April 12 - the jetBook Lite for US$99.99. I have one, and am generally quite pleased with it.
I am from Calgary but living in Kingston these last 2 years, moving to Ottawa in 4 months.

I will take a look at that aluratek libre.

If I could order to Canada from newegg.com theres a pretty good chance I would get that jetbook lite right now since our dollars are almost par. But its 139.99 at newegg.ca which is still a solid price but going to research it a bit more before I pick (likely between the kobo, and the 2 you mentioned since they are in my price range)

thanks all for the replies!
