Hi everyone
I've been reading around your forums for a couple of days. I decided tonight to join and say hi. I'm contemplating buying a ereader in the near future(tax refund), just not sure which one yet LOL
Price will play a role in my decision of which one I purchase. So will convienance of use. I surf the web alot so I also want a reader that will let me upload free ebooks and purchase from more than one site. I'm sure my 9 year old granddaughter will want to read on it too so I want one she can use too. Off to read around the site... |

Good to have your company, Nanny. BEfore taking the plunge, it might be an idea to check out the 'Which One Should I Buy?' running thread here for independent reviews of everything out there. With ebook-dedicated readers there's no such thing as one-size-fits-all, so it's important that you get the device that's perfect for your individual needs. Good luck and best wishes. Neil

Hi, nannyto1, and welcome to MR (MobilRead)
![]() Here is the link to the whole forum that neil mentioned. Which one should I buy? MR also has a great wiki full of information. There is an introductary page on E-book devices and The famous eBook Reader Matrix. Plus, there are pages about DRM (Digital Rights Management), ADE (Adobe Digital Editions), and E-book formats. Have fun looking around and just ask if you have any questions. |
