I just can't give up the library that I have, OR THE BACK LIGHT. I am sure others may feel the same. Or, I could be wrong. HA HA! But any way thanks for the input.
Paulnjean:

It is all relative to the amount of effort you wish to dedicate to convert .rb to .imp. Check the RB Wiki for programs that "burst" a .rb into its .html, image and .info components. These could then be converted manually, one at a time, or you can use RB2Project from ETI (manufacturer of the EBW 1150 or ETI-2) from the dos prompt/command line to gear up for large scale batch converting of .rb to .imp.

This all assumes that your .rb ebooks are unencrypted. If not, then its a moot point as you cannot ever migrate them to another reader!

BTW, the 1150 also has a BACK LIGHT.

Have a look at the Mobileread Wiki pages on the REB 1100, Rocket eBook, and eBookwise-1150 for more information about their similarities (and differences).
