3. What books are you looking for?
I have a few ebooks I wouldn't mind sharing. Lots of Michael Moore and Clinton's My Life.

11. Yes you can.
I have the actual ebooks and the pdf texts of most of them. My Life is the actual ebook that you can download the reader for your handheld from the Microsoft website.

Drop me a line or PM me and I would be happy to share.

13. If you like Science Fiction and Fantasy
Baen Books has now made quite a few of its previous titles available on the Internet for free.

17. That was my thought.

Besides, it would either save the eyes or lots of printer paper and ink.

Libraries rule!
