				Goodbye Sony!
			 
			
			A while back I said that i was planning to replace all my LRX ebooks in a breakable format. Well, I've done it. I no longer need or want my Sony Connect account. I am offering it free to anyone who does not yet have a Connect account. Does anyone here want it? I have the following books on it: Foundation bundle Hominid, Human, Hybrid (by Robert J. Sawyer) Constant Gardener Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy 2 worthless Balzac titles The Connect credit has expired. Sorry. |

			Dude, that is totally cool of you to just freely give up your account to someone else; how very unselfish you are.  It's going to be tough to find someone without an account, though someone form outside the US might get a chance to use it.  Props to ya!

			Say which Balzacs you have, and I will re-do them in (hopefully) a better version.

			It seems like there is only one person interested, so I guess he gets the account.  I was planning to require that the recipient have a reader first, but since no one else is interested it doesn't matter. |

			I thought it was a very generous offer, and while I could have been the first responder I decided not to because I was only interested in one of the titles.  While I am 98% sure I'll be getting a Sony, I felt it shouldn't deprive someone else unless I was 100% certain.
