I found a book finally. Finding something that was really an ebook proved to be harder than I expected
Um, it looks like all of the formats are not Kindle compatible.
…trying to figure out why my library card wouldn't work, that was the hard part.
Transferring/Syncing Content
Getting Device Going

It wouldn’t go directly into the software the ereader provided. I had to download it onto my desktop and pull it into the software so there was an extra step there.
But figuring out how to navigate in the thing was frustrating. And the display was not immediately intuitive…

Instructions/Starting
Preconceived Ideas
Well, it ought to be easier in my in my opinion and maybe it is very simple but I’m not one who likes to read a lot of directions…if I can’t figure it out, then it’s not worth figuring out.
With the touch pad interface, its interesting, I don’t even have a smart phone, yet somehow I’ve absorbed that culturally and that’s what I expect it to do. So I still find myself poking at the screen, occasionally.

I didn't like the result of the book that I chose because it was in PDF format and I could not get used to having to scroll around.
…at first I was like aw man…I don’t want the advertisements. But actually I kind of like them; I’ve gotten a few good ones…
