So happy I found this site via searching for discount for Fictionwise. I am an avid reader. My idea of wealth is being able to buy books without putting them on my wish list.
The site is most interesting. I do not yet have an e reading device as all I have seen do not have large enough screen.
When I go away I use a notebook with a good size screen. Does anyone know a good size reader?

Hi hedy and welcome to MobileRead. HAve you looked at theKindle DX? It has a nice large screen.

Hi & welcome to MR.

If you want to check out different readers, have a look at the matrix in wiki.

Me personally I am quite happy with the 6" on my Sony. Thought initially it's too small but no, it works fine.

Also check out the eBook library from MR. Sooooo many free books, lovingly formatted by MR members. That'll keep you reading for a while.

And don't forget to look into the Lounge if you want some fun.

But that's not all of course - so many subforums to view and so many things to discover.

G'day, Heddy. Great to have your company. Quite a few Oz members now. Best. Neil

Hi hedy, welcome to MR!

I like your definition of "wealth". I might add to it "...and the time to read them all"!

I agree but I am at the stage in life (retired) where I can make time for important things in my life . I spent 6 month on my back with rheumatic before penicillin and my reading speed shoot up.
