Who /kindle/ here?
/kobo/ is cool too
I saw no discussions about this so I'm curious how many here use an e-reader
There's little to talk about, really. Imagine having the same thread but for /paper/.

I was just interested in how many people use ereaders
Here, this might get better results

I too am interested. I have been thinking about getting a kindle lately, but got disheartened when I looked on amazon and found out that a bunch of books that I want to read are actually cheaper in paperback.
eBay'd a Kobo for $20, downloaded a shit ton of epubs for free. Was only unable to find an epub for a few of the books a wanted
Highly recommend. I like that no one can see what you're reading, so no one can pretend to be interested about it

please do market research somewhere else, this post is not about literature

I wanted to get a Kobo as well, but the Black Friday deal for the 300ppi Paperwhite was cheaper than most Kobo Glo HD offerings I could find. I hate to not have epub support, but that's for a future jailbreak I guess.
I like that nobody can see what I'm reading as well. In middle school, I read Eragon in paperback and got real tired of people talking to me about it.

Of course it is, it is about how people interact with their literature

>it is about how people interact with their literature
I read nothing in the OP about that. Maybe you should have made a proper post.
>>7388169
Maybe so

But you didn't, you spam the board with commercial content. Maybe you should use face cream also.
I have a kindle.I love it really. It's nice that no one can see what you're reading. Also the highlight feature and vocab builder are awesome too. Project Guttenberg has a ton of classics.
Anyone have a search tool for books in kindle format?
As I said in another thread, the smart /lit/ user would have both an e-reader and paper books. You aren't a lover of books if you don't have any physical books, but you'd be a fool to neglect the conveniences and practicality of an e-reader.

Check the sticky. The wiki explains how to use Xchat and Calibre e-book manager to get pretty much any book free and convert it to kindle format.

I have a kobo. My sister bought it as a gift for me 2 years ago or something but I didn't really use it much. Now that I have to go to the hospital for chemo every other week it gets a lot of use because it's easier to carry around than a physical book.
