Hello all from New Zealand
Have today begun my search and to join the growing group of e-reader owners in NZ. The biggest problem i face is that there aren't that many retailers with the machines yet so you can see and handle them in person.

I have B&N's eReader on my iTouch which is fine but for me it's just a little bit small and using it can become quite uncomfortable.

Part of the fun in the following weeks is to find out what machines are in NZ or whether i import my own. I love having gadgets and now my bookshelves are virtually full at home with past reads and loads of text references, an eReader seems to be the answer.

Hey Morris!

You might find this useful - Review of ECO reader. The ECO reader and the Hanlin V5 are available in Australia and NZ atm, with support. I don't have a reader myself yet, so I can't really comment much more than that.

I hope you get all the information your heart desires here
