Hi. My name is Laurentiu and I am a Bookaholic!

Hello e-book readers!

I am the new kid on the block - well... the block may be new, but I am getting older, however, I can still remember the days when I was a kid and had plenty of time to read!
So, as I mentioned, I always liked to read and, in fact, on my night table there is always a stack of books.

I have found quite a few books in electronic format on the Internet but I always hated it to read them on the computer. There is nothing like lying in bed, with a book in your hands. Plus, spending most of my day in front of the monitor, I don't see it funny at all to spend more hours at home, reading.
So, that being said, I decided to take advantage of the 21st century technology and get myself an e-book reader.

After browsing the Internet in search for information, I decided: it will be a Sony PRS-600! I have to admit that at the beginning I was tempted to get a Kindle, but I think this has too many drawbacks, so, Sony is my final answer!

That's it, for now. I am looking forward to interesting discussions on this virtual community.

Laurentiu

I have the 505 and absolutely love it! Don't forget about all the free books right here on MR. They have been beautifully formatted by some very dedicated members and look great on our Readers.
