Hi everyone
Just to say hello. I am new to the forum. Have always been a big fan of books for most of my 55 years and thought I would take a look at ebooks. I was impressed. So now searching for agod quality eReader at a reasonable price. While read through some more of your posts and some of the great reviews before deciding which model to buy.
Any suggestions are most welcome

Hi Gordon. Welcome aboard. I hope you find a reader you like.

I'm happy with my SONY Reader. I'm a former Kindle user who ran into problems and was very unhappy with customer service. Other members say Amazon customer service is fine.

I recently read a string where someone had problems with a SONY Reader and was very unhappy with their customer. Other members have differrent experiences. Good luck trying to sort it all out.

Maybe if you are more specific about what's important people here can be more helpful. Do you want to read newspapers or just books? Do you care about wireless? Are pdf files important to you? etc, etc.
