I love this product. I had checked other similar products, and felt that this would be the best for me. Walmart had the best price! I love to read and have run out of room for hard copy books. I don't put "classics" on this, just books I want to read once. My only complaint is that, if you have strong security on you computer, the firewall will prevent the successfull loading of program and access to the ebook store. I had to load everything on my laptop rather than my home computer. Other than that, it's fantastic!

I bought the reader for myself as my husband HATES all the books I have around the house. I love the reader. It is easy to download the books. Was great when I spent time in the doctors office. Didn't have a big book to lug around. The only thing I don't like about it, is the original print is to small.....so if you increase the size of the print, the page turning is different. The pages also turn a little slow. Overall I think it is a wonderful product and would recommend to avid readers.

Iam very happy with this product,it maintains a really good charge, i just wish it had a built in light,for the cost of it anyway, the only thing that confuses me is that when i turn a page the screen flashes about 2 times before it goes to the new page,is that normal?either way,i love it!!!!

I have loved my reader since the first day! It's compact, easy to read and simple to use. I commute every day on the train and it is perfect for that. It even has different zoom settings. I still have a lot to learn about it, but I love that I didn't have to go through a bunch of instructions to get started! Make sure that you charge it up before you go anywhere!
