You will also need to convert the books to a Kindle friendly format (e.g. mobi or kf8) - easiest way is probably with calibre which apprentice alf got a plugin for literally drag and drop simple dedrm on import to library. Then connect Kindle to computer and calibre can automatically convert the ebook prior to sending to the device (if you did not convert the book yourself first).

Anyone considering either the H20 or the Voyage should also consider the new Kobo Glo HD. It has the Voyage screen and is a lot cheaper.

Buying an ebook reader is like buying underwear, with one exception: You can't try on the underwear before you buy it. Here you can get opinions but, as my drill sergeant once said, opinons are like a*******, everyone has one. Take the opinions here as just that (including my own), and try to see who is biased toward the one ebook reader he or she likes, or the one he or she dislikes. Listen to how they frame their sentences: What is their particular bias? And remember, buying an ebook reader is like getting married, with one exception: You can't return your wife. Have fun making decisions and listen wisely to the words that come from the members' posts here - sometimes in anger; sometimes in joy. You'll soon be able to sort out which one is which. Oh, and just in case someone woke up without a sense of humor this morning (we know who they are): Last edited by Dr. Drib; 04-12-2015 at 06:52 AM. |

Yeah, so I'm the one Dr Drib would call humourless. I never get tired of dudes comparing their wives to their electronics. Nevvverrrr.
Can we just talk about the ereaders, please? |

I know... almost all of the e-readers have removed the text-to-speech options, which is great, you don't have to listen to them nag. :-)
