I also highly recommend Calibre, the software that allows you to convert into any format and download cover art. Never have to worry about something being in ePub format again :)Adrianahttp://occasionallyinteresting.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794422163568443047.post-14207851861338169862011-07-15T14:34:28.541-05:002011-07-15T14:34:28.541-05:00I've only quickly looked at a Kindle, but then...I've only quickly looked at a Kindle, but then I've only quickly looked at an iPad, but my main advantage of the Kindle is that you can't see your own, ageing face looking down reflected in the glass.The Coffee Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06686044352290845905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794422163568443047.post-60951624840464805492011-07-15T14:14:30.206-05:002011-07-15T14:14:30.206-05:00I'm still working in print and am about to jum...I'm still working in print and am about to jump on the ereader bandwagon. The biggest decision at this point is whether to get the Kindle or an iPad. The iPad has far more uses and and I can put the Kindle app on it, but the e-ink and glare-free screen on the Kindle are important.<br /><br />But I may have to wait a bit longer… looks like Amazon is planning to release a tablet in or around October on the Google Android platform It could prove to be the best of both!Waywardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13011712969327998971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794422163568443047.post-8274862751429027042011-07-14T14:15:07.040-05:002011-07-14T14:15:07.040-05:00My one experience of Dallas in August makes me ver...My one experience of Dallas in August makes me very sympathetic to your plight, and I was told at the time that the weather was "not all that bad" by the locals.Jenhttp://olivespearls.typepad.com/knittersknitters/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794422163568443047.post-28549791085728494342011-07-14T13:59:58.720-05:002011-07-14T13:59:58.720-05:00My husband gave me a Nook Color for my birthday la...My husband gave me a Nook Color for my birthday last year and I love it so. so. much. And? I enjoy the fact that I can download books from my library since it's adobe compatable. I still read (as my son calls them) analog books (that kills me), but boy-oh-boy do I love my nook.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05241997715764189848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794422163568443047.post-38194565985017750912011-07-14T02:29:11.509-05:002011-07-14T02:29:11.509-05:00Kindle aside it's STOOPID HOT here too.

And I adore my Sony, don't know what I ever did without it. I got mine because I had to leave my extensive physical book collection (started by my mother) in Texas, and swore I'd never be put in that position again. So ebooks were a Godsend for that. And the getting things on release day...oh yeah, come on instant gratification!Shelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10328121923979252376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794422163568443047.post-49279351049587571962011-07-13T11:51:39.392-05:002011-07-13T11:51:39.392-05:00First of all, that heat would turn me into an abso...First of all, that heat would turn me into an absolute nut job (though 60 degrees in July isn't doing me any favors, either).
