Hello from Slovakia
Hello everyone,

I am a Slovakian and new memeber here. I am currently planning to buy an e-book reader and I am diving deeply into the forums for the most suitable e-book reader. I have a comprehensive library of .lit and .prc/pdb e-books and I use my Windows Mobile phone to read it. However, the small LCDs are not the most appropriate way to read, hence my interest in native e-book readers.
I wanted to buy a Kindle one, but the book publishers in Slovakia will use a DRM .epub format, which disqualifies the Kindle, unfortunately. Any ideas?

Thanx

Good to have your company, Bobo. Our second member from fair Slovakia, I think. I can understand your wanting to avoid Kindle. There are many fine devices out there that will do what you want them too, though. Why not check out the *Which One Should I Buy?* forums here for an impartial overview from hands-on users? Personally, I'd recommend the Sony series, which I find tremendously flexible, but others here have wider experience of a whole range of devices. Very best wishes. Neil

Thank you Neilmarr, I forgot to mention support of special characters that the e-book reader must provide...

Well, Digiknihy.cz sell many devices that have Czech / Slovak fonts and firmware installed.
