E-book readers, how I solved my dilemna

A few weeks ago, I asked a question about e-book readers (read it here). A few people shared their own experience with me in the comments, or on the Facebook page. Thank you for those who contributed, it was helpful. A few articles were also pointed out to me. Read the articles here and here

Now, I’ve decided it’s not time to buy an e-book reader. For the time being, I have decided to follow my friend Alan Davey’s advice: download the kindle software on your computer and phone, and read from these instead. I already had the software, all I have to do is to download books now. I’ll make use of the free classics available, but also of the free extracts you can download on the Amazon website before deciding whether a book is worth buying. I’ll probably make use of the regular special offers. But in the end, I still would rather use a real book, with a cover, paper pages, and real ink.
