Smile Hello from Garden State
Hi,

I am new to the world of ebook readers and this site has been a tremendous help in my search for that elusive first reader.

It turns out that what I need doesn't really exist yet (irex 800 screen with sony daily edition capabilities) but I think I can sustain on something close meanwhile.

I'm originally from the Garden State, but moved away nearly 35 years ago. Haven't been back to visit in about 15 years.


Good luck on your search for your perfect reader. Please let us know which one you decide to get and how you like it.

Hello Blueoyster. Welcome to MobileRead. I remember Blueoyster's beginnings out in Stonybrook in the late 60's. Great music!

I took the plunge and bought a used Sony PRS 600 on ebay. An appetizer rather than main course, however.

My reader, which I bought on ebay, arrived today and it turned out to be defective. It has a white vertical line right in the middle of the screen. Thankfully, the seller has a 7 day return policy. Just my luck .

Welcome from a fellow New Jerseyan, exit 48 GSP. I guess you know there is a wealth of ebook reader info here.
