re: #12 BlueCanuck

Nope, and they don’t even offer it on amazon.ca . Which is a real shame because I am a big e-book reader. I have over 200 novels archived. Free ones and ones I bought. From the sounds of things the Kindle would be light years beyond my palm pilot for reading.

If you can’t use a Kindle in Canada, you might consider a Sony Reader. If you want it to read books - and just to read books - then you won’t miss the other bells and whistles that the Kindle has. You can get books from Sony Connect, and it will work with just about any non-locked book. Secure books need to be in the proper format. Sony Connect has those, but I think Fictionwise is working on offering them - converting books to that format.
