No, I don't have any ebook reader myself yet. I would love to get myself an Ipad 2 though, so I can get online, and I can read books too. Anyway, I have to wait until November, when the Black Friday comes, when the price is going down ultra cheap, then I will get myself one.

the apple ipad 2 is neat, you can't find nothing for a droid reader, but there are plenty of stuff for the ipad

I do not! I love the feeling and smell of curling up with a good book. I don't want to lose that. I also have trouble reading on a computer screen (or similar screens) and lose my place. So the tried and true book for me it is!

Sorry to hear that yours broke! I don't have one at the moment, but my husband and I have been talking a little bit about possibly getting one in the future. We still haven't decided for sure yet, but we would have to research which kind we like best. I love to read lots of books, so it would definitely be much more convenient to have an ebook reader!

i loved mine, gutenberg texts were just like flipping pages on a book and when you opened it back again, it was saved

I don't have an ebook reader yet. i've been thinking about getting one though. i love to read. i did a comparison website awhile back to compare the ipad, kindle, nook and another type of ebook thing. Now almost every company is coming out with their own version of the ereaders. It's a touch decision. I may start out with a cheaper one like the kindle or something and then if I use it enough I might go for an ipad that does tons of stuff.

I actually don't want one. I like the real book in my hands. But then again, it'd be nice to have all my books in one portable area and be able to enlarge the font in the book.

that's a great thing too, especially books that aren't in print anymore. I still pick up some of those really old romances and I still love them regardless of the reader, thank you

no i don't have one, but i had thought about getting one. they are very expensive but when you consider you can download free books, and even when you pay for them they are a fraction of the price of a normal book, they would save you a fortune in the end. plus your house wouldn't be coming down with paperbacks! lol!

No I don’t have any EBook reader but I always download books in PDF format and use adobe reader for reading this. But this can make problem for which that use multimedia phones and want to read books in their mobile phones. So I think ISILO is also good EBook Reader software for mobile users.

I don't yet, and the only reason is because I'm on a fixed income and ebook readers can be expensive, especially if one doesn't have a credit card.
