I've no experience with any of them but come now, it's Sony.  There's a 
reason every format they've been behind has failed: they always want to 
own the entire ecosystem and lock the whole thing behind brain damaged 
restrictions.

[SLUG] e reader

2007-08-08 Thread Luke Vanderfluit

Hi.

I'm trying to buy an e reader in Australia. It's prooving ... not easy.

Does anyone have ideas on where to get one.

I've been looking at the sony e reader. I understand that it's possible 
to read pdfs on it. However it seems not straighforward.


Anyone's experience/tips on this is appreciated.

Kr.
Luke.
