e-readers are amazing!
kozmonaut:
Hey guys, i have a website all about e-readers if you are looking to compare what is out there and stuff.

latest reviews are the nook simple touch, amazon kindle special offers and kobo touch.
Rizzo:
Hmmm, I've had a read of the various reviews all over the place and I'm having a hard time deciding between the various e-reader factions. I can't say I've looked at Sony, Bebook or any of the smaller companies very seriously.
Kindle looks nice but I don't like the proprietary formats.
Kobo touch sounds good but is hard to get in Australia.
Nook sounds fine but I haven't seen anyone seriously praising it.
Does anyone have any definite recommendations? I'm pretty much down to those three. I've tried all of them and they all seem good in their own regards.

I love all three nooks, but they're not really meant for use outside of the US. So that could give you some issues. I had the first generation nook and loved it. The touch screen could be a little wonky sometimes. I prefer the Nook Simple Touch - it's the perfect size, and easy to use. You can also borrow from the library with nooks.
Barmymoo:
My dad has something called Calibre, which removes the proprietory formatting apparently and does lots of other fancy things. I haven't tried it yet but it might solve the problem for you.
If you do get a Kindle, I heartily recommend the Kindle covers, because I just got one and it's really good!
nekowafer:
Calibre can convert lots of different file types to lots of other file types. It's been very useful for me. It just can't remove DRM.
