- What a find!
This is great. Purchasing this product gives you access to over 2000 titles at the Novumedia web site (you may not need all of them, but there are a lot of gems in their library of public domain books and "little publishers"). It also let's you down load any text you create (web, wordprocessor, etc.) and read at your convenience. And, you can purchase newer titles online, pay no shipping and handling and get the title instantly. I HIGHLY recommend this gadget of the future.

- NO MORE CROWDED BOOKCASES!
This thing is awsome! I have read about 7 titles so far and I just like it more and more. I first thought that titles would be hard to get or download but it is so easy. Being that it is a new item, not every new book is available in electronic form but they are catching on slowly. It's very easy to read and I can read it for hours without any eye strain. Yeah it may be a little heavy but hey, at least Franklin has the product out there! I would recommend the Rocket eBook to anyone who is an avid reader. Mine goes wherever I go!

- I love it
THE BAD STUFF: It's heavy. I sometimes flip pages when I don't mean to (although that it just because I always keep my thumb on the button). The screen shows fingerprints and it's really difficult to wipe off, about as hard as getting PAM off a pan. It's thicker than I expected (and one half is thicker than the other). The text is a little grainy. THE GOOD STUFF: It does everything I could dream of. It let me put my ENTIRE family tree (over 1,300 webpages) on it so I can take it to the National Archives. It let me make a collection of essays to put on it. There are thousands of books to download FREE. The backlight is fantastic. The text is changable. The thing holds about 100 books (mine has the 32 mg upgrade, which I recommend). The battery charges swiftly. The thing takes about five minutes to install and set up. The touch screen is awesome, especially when you use the pen. Allergo, the handwriting-recognizing software, actually works. The dictionary is handy, since you can set it up to touch one button, then touch a word to get the definition. I love the feature that lets you search the whole book for a term. I love carrying around Josephus and the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle along with everything else I want to read. CONCLUSION: I love it.

- Mac Owners Beware
My wife purchased a Rocket ebook for me for Christmas. She started here at Amazon. She carefully checked the Rocket web site as well, and spoke to the folks that make the Rocket. She was assured that everything required to use the Rocket with a Mac was included. Wrong! Any Mac currently being made or made during the past year or so requires a Keyspan connector between the e-book and the Mac USB slot. This costs $80. It is not mentioned in any documentation that comes with the ebook. It took me more than an hour to get through to the company. At first they responded by saying it was at their Website and/or in the FAQ section, but we "went to their Web site together" while I was on the phone, and they reluctantly conceded that they had mislead the public. The company does literature. Guide provided on the ebook. Regardless of how much I may eventually enjoy this toy, I'll never develop a high regard for NuvoMedia, which makes the Rocket ebook.

- Pick one up!
I used to hate the fact that I couldn't read as much as Iwanted to. There just wasn't enough time in the day. The RocketeBook really changed that. I just throw it in my satchel and can turn it on and pick up reading right where I left off.

I know this sounds trite, but I rather read a book on the Rocket than in its paper version. It is a great crutch to my laziness--I can sit or lie in any position and with a flick of my thumb, turn the 'page.' And, whenever I have some down-time, I can spend it reading. The backlit screen makes reading in bed without disturbing my companion realistic. And, the screen is beautiful. It has a great clarity and I suffer from no eyestrain, of course, if YOU do, you can bump up the font a few points. The fact I can get many books loaded on the thing is incredible and allows me to select any reading material I'm in the mood for. Just a few clicks on a book seller's web site and I can download the book in a couple minutes.

I've read where some people complain that the books are a lot more expensive than they should be. However, ebooks are on average 20% less than the normal paper version, and when you consider there is no tax or shipping charges AND get instant gratification of receiving the books immediately, the savings really add up. You can also often download a portion of the book to read, free of charge, so you can see if you'll like it before paying for it. I'd also definitely recommend the 'Pro' version. It's more $$ than the basic version but has 12 more megs of memory and can hold upwards of 50 or 60 books. It's well worth it. Pick one up!
