1. In what year were you born? 1977
2. What's your line of work? Elementary school teacher 3. Where do you live? Toronto, Canada 4. What do you read on your device? (fiction, newspapers, articles ect.) Fiction, magazines, webpages/articles 5. When do you use it? On the subway, at home, when babysitting, out and about 6. Which E-Book Device do you own? Sony Reader and iPod Touch. In the past, I have owned and used an eBookwise and some others. 7. What's your verdict (quick)? I love it. I wish for one format which all readers can support. I can read secure eReader on my iPod Touch without converting, but must convert to read them on my Sony, and the finished file does not always look as nice, plus it's a lot of work. In the past, I would have to get rid of print books due to lacking space to store them, so I love that ebooks let me keep the book forever without worrying about this. |
