I promised I would let you know how I got along reading on my new eReader (it's actually called Kobo). There are many different types of eReaders out there, you just have to make a choice. This one I chose because it is connected to Chapters Indigo and I can use the gift cards to purchase books on line. Most of the books are the same price you would pay at Walmart or the Superstore, but there are some free ones out there and some at reasonable prices.
Anyway, my first ebook was a Harliquin Romance. I chose this book because it was free (LOL) and because it was a smaller book than I usually read. I thought reading ebooks would be hard on the eyes but you can turn down the backlight on the reader to ease eye strain. The reader is about the same weight as a large paperback and lighter than a hardcover book. The reader I have is a touch screen, which I would recommend and WiFi, so I can purchase and download the books direct to my Kobo without going through my computer.
For anyone who does a lot of reading, it's a lot of fun, BUT, don't forget about the paperback, it can't be replaced YET !
