Talking New kobo Reader
Hi,just bought my Kobo from A&R Dandenong. Have not physically received it yet and am just playing around on my PC to see what is going on, and where I can look for advice.
Saw how some of you are upgrading using a USB card and wondering how to play with Linux.... I have been fooling with Linux for a couple of years, but still very NEW to it and not real good with the system yet. Am now in my 70's and a bit slow with communication!
They tell me that I will have my Reader on the 13/12/2010.
cheers
Bill

Hi Bill,
Enjoy your new reader! The Dandenong thing caught my eye, knew you must be from Melbourne or the vicinity. My daughter lives in Mt Eliza. Been to Rye, it is beautiful there! Also been to the Fairy Penguins. Sweet!
See ya! Sharon
