Welcome to MobileRead.

Ask for advice in the various reader forums — you'll get lots of opinions. With the announcement of a new file format for Amazon, the potential formatting advantage of the ADE-based readers over the kindle may be about to disappear.

Calibre is great for organising your ebooks and, if necessary, converting from one format to another. But if you only buy ADE ePubs, you might find the ADE does all you need for a while.

Two places. One thread in news and one in the kindle forum.

Amazon's announcement is here.
