1. Why should I read an e-book?
   
   You could be missing out on some of the best fiction and non-fiction currently being published.
   
   E-publishers are also willing to take chances on books that don’t fit neatly into any category or genre. So, if a western/science fiction/romance is to your liking, you’re liable to find one e-published. It’s extremely difficult to find cross-genre books traditionally published.

2. How can I read ebooks while away from my PC?
   
   You can print a copy of an e-book using your word processing program. E-book downloads are usually about 50% cheaper than most paperbacks currently on the shelves. So, for pennies, you can print out a book, using your word processing program exactly as you would like to read it…in the font of your choice, in the font size of your choice, one-sided or double-sided. Still cheaper than most paperbacks.
   
   You can use your PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) such as the Palm Pilot or the Casio Cassiopea or Philips Nino. Some publishers offer e-books in PRC format, for the palm pilot operating system. Others offer them in html which can be read in the mini-browser that comes with Windows CE on PDAs.
   
   You can read them on your lapTop computer.
   
   You can read them on dedicated reading devices such as RocketBook or Softbook.
