Ok so Im very near pulling trigger on the new Kindle. But, I have some questions / concers.
First, our Library has ebooks now but it sounds like the Kindle and ipad dont support the DRM they use. In looking deeper, I'm reading you cant use the Kindle for the free Google Books stuff either?? Is that true? I found a bunch of the old clasic SiFi I love to be free on Google. Asimov, Heinlein, Clarke, etc. All free. Can you read these from Kindle / Ipad? If not...
For you sony ereader and nook owners, You can do the library stuff, and Google books. But what about selections that arent released yet free, that you would buy from Amazon. Is the Sony / Nook availability as good as Kindle?
