hello from Alberta, Canada
Nice to be here - I just got a Kobo wireless last week and am pretty happy with it so far, now that I'm figuring out how it works. I have been borrowing my friend's older Kindle for the last few months and knew I wanted to get my own e-reader. I had the hardest time deciding on which one to get - if only Kindle would read epubs and library books too!
But just the thought of being able to carry around hundreds of books in one 8 ounce package is sure wonderful. I have a LOT of books and the boxes seem to get heavier every time I lift them! I just wish all my old favourites will someday come in ebook form. I look forward to being a member of this community - I've already looked at some threads and there seems to be a wealth of knowledge here. |

Sorry Janet but we're not allowing and more Canadians to join MobileRead until you stop sending those damn Alberta Clippers down here.
Shoot, I didn't think you'd fall for that one. Anyway, welcome to MobileRead |

thanks for the welcome!
Sorry about the Alberta Clippers - all I can say is that we are glad to see them go!
I live in Red Deer, so I am torn between Eskimos and Stampeders. Have to say I do cheer a bit more for the Stamps when they are playing each other though! Just going to go over and check out the Kobo section, thanks for the link! I do have some questions about it that may be answered there... Janet |
