Hello Everyone (from Maryland, USA)
Hi Everyone,

I have been lurking in these fora and taking advantage of the valuable advice and suggestions of its members for a couple of weeks now. I am a doctoral student in Computer Science in Maryland and I have been wanting to switch to electronic reading for a while now. I originally posted my requirements in this thread and, with great help from our fellow mobilereaders, finally decided to order the iRex iLiad Book Edition today. My decision was based primarily on the iLiad's excellent PDF support, the openness of the device and the software and its larger screen size. I am really excited

I hope to contribute to further discussions in the future! MobileRead seems like a fantastic community!

Hi DesiLinguist and welcome to the Forum.

We had a DC area meet up back in August and will no doubt have another in future. Stay tuned for details

I wasn't aware that there were that many people from the DC area on these forums. A meetup with fellow local mobilereaders would be great! I will keep my eyes peeled for details. Is there a specific thread or an area of the forum I should be looking at for such announcements?

Hi DesiLinguist. Watch in the Lounge in the Miscellaneous section. And look for a red Meet Up tag.

To read the details of the last Meet Up go here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26766
