			Lucky feller, Bob. Pop into my own wee publishing house's website (www.bewrite.net) and if any title/s catch your eye, drop me a line and I'll top up your new reader with some fun books as a Christmas present (ntmarrATbewrite.net [use the @ sign]). The ebooks are PDF only right now, but they read well on a Sony and you can always easily convert to ePub using the free Calibre library software you'll soon come across here. Good to have your company, Bob. Best wishes to you and your generous colleagues. Neil

			Thank you all for the nice welcome... Spent some time last night hunting up a few books...some free classics and a couple of L'Amour westerns from the Sony store... Not really liking the Sony store/software option, but I did down load and set up Calibre, so I'll be working with that...   |

			Congrats! Check out Smashwords.com if you haven't already - it's a very cool site for getting ebooks in lots of formats.
