My first post ever. But will take the plunge. New ebook reader Aluratek Libre, works fine. I have 700 plus ebooks. They are poorly organized and hard to keep track of. However, I have hope with Mobiread, Calibre, Library Thing and others to come to grips with the problem. However, I will pass on my discovery of the day. I have long and clumsy fingers and have trouble holding the reader without inadvertent touching of the buttons. On some news site I saw a picture of an IPAd with a large plumber's plunger on the back side using a relatively short handle as a prop for reading without holding it. It was of course a joke. However, I placed an inch and one half suction cup on the back of mine, one suitable for using in the shower to hold a towel or washcloth, and problem solved. Curl a finger through the hook and you have and excellent handle to control your unit. Works right or left handed. Be cautious at first until you are sure that the vacuum seal works. Periodically, days for me, I re-seal it. Greetings to all
