Smile New, with a slightly used PRS 500
Hi Everyone, I am new to this forum. I bought my sister a Sony PRS 500 for Christmas. We are both going to share it untill I can afford to buy my own.

My sister and I have ALWAYS had a love of reading. We read whenever we can. When we were younger, we use to get into trouble for reading too much!!!!! We think this will be a great device that would allow us to read more books in more places. I bought it barley used on EBay, so hopefully, it will still work wonderfully. I cant WAIT to get some books on it and start reading.

Welcome SillyBear. Just remember that ebooks are adictive (even more than regular booke). Hope this doesn't cause family friction.

Thats exactly what will happen, so after new years, we will hear how SillyBear or his sister got their own device instead so as not to have to share

Oh, and welcome to the forums SillyBear

I assume they will just sit together and read the same book all the time. How else would they share?

Welcome to MobileRead, johann!

Take a look at the Sony Portable Reader PRS-500/505 forum to see the breakdown of sub-forums specific to the Reader. Try the Reader Troubleshooting sub-forum if you have a problem with the hardware or software. Hopefully the more knowledgeable members will be able to provide an answer or point you in the right direction.

I see you've posted in the Calibre forum. You're in good hands. Kovid isn't just knowledgeable....he's an expert!
