Well, I think you're all so lucky to be able to become members of this service 
at all.  We kiwis are only able to read the public dom'in books.  I hope we can 
start something like this in our country sometime soon.

I am a new member.  I got my braillenote, about a month ago.

I've downloded a book, and I was just so amazed at how I could have a book 
available in a tiny machine, rather than in huge heavy volumes.  Talk about 
portable.  Anyway, I guess I'm a little behind.  You all sound like you've been 
downloding for quite a while.

Well take care
