Hi fellow ebookers,

what a great community you guys have created here. Can't wait to explore more and meet more cool people. How do you think an ebook reader has changed/affected you? Do you read more than ever or is it just a novelty? I'm on the fence about it, but there's no denying they're such cool devices

Less back strain, and more bookshelf space for Star Trek memorabilia.

Hope to hear more from you soon!

Hi darius and welcome to the Forum. Like Ervserver, I read a lot more now that I have an eBook reader

Thanks for the great welcome guys n gals. It's greatly appreciated.

I'm from Ireland, the land of green things and clouds

I was all excited about discovering the world of mobile readers and the Mobileread forums. Then I thought do I really read that much? They're a tad expensive considering the current economic climate and all. I'd have to get into reading big time to make the purchase worthwhile. Now I've started reading again and it isn't as difficult or boring as I remember. In fact there's a lot of enjoyment to be had. Thanks for the feedback too, I can see myself reading a lot more too if/when I get a reader.

@Desertgrandma - I'm a bit of a self help junkie, I probably supported the livlihoods of several gurus at present

Though I'm not adverse to read anything except maybe romance. Do you have any good suggestions?

Do you like Sci-Fi? H.G. Wells, Kadrey, or Docorow are here and free.

Here is our e-book upload page. Note you can sort by genre.........have a look around, download a few, and enjoy!
