Hello, from British Columbia, Canada
Hi guys, I just thought I would drop a line and say hi. I am an avid reader of fantasy and sci fi ( Erickson, Martin, Stephenson, Abercrombie, Lynch, Hamilton.........just finished Under the Dome and Turncoat on my reader)

I recieved a Sony PRS 300 for Christmas from my wife and just love it, especially since I am on the road constantly for my job.

I, too have problems syncing my e reader so will be using the drag and drop method to sync my books.

Take Care

Mike

Hi Mike, welcome to MR!

I rode a bicycle once (a long time ago!) from Missoula, Montana to Jasper, Alberta. Most of the trip was in British Columbia. You live in a beautiful part of the world!

Hi Mike.

I had the privilege of visiting British Columbia once. I arrived there via the ferry boat from Washington. It is an absolutely beautiful place.

Greetings to one of my northern neighbors, and welcome to MobileRead!

Thanks for the welcome.

Yes, we pretty much have every kind of climate here: mountains, rain forests, beautiful beaches, and even a bit of a desert. 25 below right now, though.

Mike

Welcome to MobileRead Mike.

It's pouring rain right now in Vancouver and rather mild.

I'm sure you'll enjoy your new reader.

Mike, sorry but we're not allowing any more Canadians to join MR till you stop sending all those damn Alberta Clippers down here.

Shoot, I didn't think you'd fall for that one. So, then welcome to MobileRead.

I have to admit I had no idea what this meant. My first thought was, "A basketball team? What?"

Gotta love Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alberta_clipper
