Yes, I know that it contains a reader, but you cannot relay in a comfy 
chair with a desktop, of a large laptop.

Still, I prefer the feel of a book.  If I had a Nook or similar 
pad/tablet, then maybe I would deal with a reader/ebook system.  Though, 
most of the books I have been reading are post-1990 and  pre-2005 and 
are not the type to get a version in an reader format.

I installed Calibre to test out some of the free book sites out there, 
but did not get into reading it that way.
