Oh, formats -- with Calibre you can convert to the format you need

SO yes, you can fix any format to be what you want!

Doing good! I've got a long day tomorrow, but it's not a difficult shift and will be 1/2 my paycheck next week.

I just briefly looked this morning, and it seems so many of them come with internet connection. Do you pay extra for a monthly service? I'm NOT looking to replace my laptop. Do I REALLY need wifi or 3g or whatever?

**zan_chan** · 10-12-2010

No time now, Storm, but I'll PM you tonight with a bunch of great Kindle links.

Best. Thing. Ever. is all I have to say

Work time!

DISNEY... !!!YAY!!!

My definitive answer on that is...it depends

LOL

If you buy books from amazon.com, you'll need the wifi connection to load your books from their 'bookshelf' (Or whatever they call what they store YOUR purchases on -- I don't have one to be sure) All my readers have had this capability; I never used it. I store my books on a USB stick thank you VERY much...and I always had a thing against DRM'ed books so never bought from amazon. (Digital Rights Management)

My iPad has wifi also, which I DO use sometimes -- to access the internet. Not to read, I still store my books on a USB stick...LOL Or Jack will use it, when he goes to school with me and waits for me to get out of class LOL.

3G? Naww, you don't need it, not if you don't plan on browsing the internet while on the road, and can remember to load any books you store online while at home etc. 3G is just expensive phone technology, (monthly fee to u se...)with which you can access any online bookshelf in any place, whether you're near a wifi enabled connection or not. (this isn't really a difficult thing, my home connection is wifi enabled.)

Let's put it this way -- if you don't feel the need of an iPhone w/3G, you probably don't need a reader with it

I just have too much stuff!

I've got most of the boxes back in the closet, for now. And when my nephew gets his stuff out of the storage unit(just down the street) next week, I can move things down there.

This is the ereader I used for YEARS.... : http://www.ebookwise.com/ebookwise/ebookwise1150.htm

To be honest, I'd go with the Kindle, if I were you, and just get the booklight/cover that Zan is gonna send you the link to

It has more storage, is thinner and lighter, etc. Unless you insist you need backlit, which I did, and that's why I used the ebookwise, then went to the ipad. (And even so, I'd consider a kindle if I didn't have my ipad, after seeing Zan's cover)
