The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Microsoft has their own, also! :)

    LINK

    Informational LINK

    Barnes & Noble has a e-reader also. EBooks/Nook

    And, if you check your local Library system "online", they will probably have a nice E-book access - Such as Netlibrary or Overdrive! :)

    I personally like mobipocket after using the MS reader on my tablet... it's just that MS seems to have abandoned their eReader project as far as I can tell.

    Also, I'd be remiss if I failed to mention the huge selection of free books at Project Gutenberg.

    Thanks a lot, homies. Using the Microsoft one. It was the only one that let me import my own books.
