I don't have a portable ereader yet. However, just as soon as I can, I'm getting one. I'm older than dirt, or so says my grandson, but I love reading in the electronic format. Don't get me wrong, I have tons of books. We just moved and my wife and I together found OVER 20 boxes of books that we sold to a dealer at a local flea market. Even with that we still are having a hard time finding a place to put all of the ones we decided to keep. There are some books that are so good, I read them again and again. Then too, I'm so forgetful I forget some of the details and get to relive the good parts again. As they say, a few more years and I'll get to plan my own surprise party. I still check out books at the local lending library and then check some of them out for the PDF files on my computer. The main reason I want an ereader so badly, is it for the number of books you can put on one and have them available. I get tired of reading one book at at time so I've always got at least two if not more I'm reading at any one time. I also have a very bad back so if I go somewhere like backpacking, it allows me to indulge without having to worry about the extra weight. I like options.
