Hi everyone
I've been reading around your forums for a couple of days. I decided tonight to join and say hi. I'm contemplating buying a ereader in the near future(tax refund), just not sure which one yet LOL

Price will play a role in my decision of which one I purchase. So will convienance of use. I surf the web alot so I also want a reader that will let me upload free ebooks and purchase from more than one site.

I'm sure my 9 year old granddaughter will want to read on it too so I want one she can use too.

Off to read around the site...

Good to have your company, Nanny. BEfore taking the plunge, it might be an idea to check out the 'Which One Should I Buy?' running thread here for independent reviews of everything out there. With ebook-dedicated readers there's no such thing as one-size-fits-all, so it's important that you get the device that's perfect for your individual needs. Good luck and best wishes. Neil

Hi, nannyto1, and welcome to MR (MobilRead)

Here is the link to the whole forum that neil mentioned. Which one should I buy?

MR also has a great wiki full of information. There is an introductary page on E-book devices and The famous eBook Reader Matrix. Plus, there are pages about DRM (Digital Rights Management), ADE (Adobe Digital Editions), and E-book formats.

Have fun looking around and just ask if you have any questions.
