ebooks on the cheap

I'm in no way affiliated with this company, but man! Their prices are far better than ANY other site I've seen. Almost every book there is $1-$2 off at least:

BooksOnBoard.com

They have all major formats and pretty much every major title that I could think of searching for.

I just want to spread the ebook love!

Thanks for posting these sites. They are much cheaper than others I have seen. Just download "Never eat alone" and it was about $5 cheaper on paper back digital than any other site.

Many libraries in the US offer ebooks for loan. You need a library card and then you can go to their site and download an ebook and also nay reader that you might need.

They do expire after about three weeks, but I love to use this as it is totally free. they also have audiobooks.

Thanks for the tip. Can you read these on the Axim or do you read them on a PC through a special reader?

Either way this sounds like a good option.

BTW....if you sign up for the Simon & Schuster newsletter (at SimonSays.com: Simon & Schuster, Inc. - Publisher of fiction and nonfiction books for all ages) you should get an email with the option to take a survey. Taking the survey will score you $10 off any product on their site, including their ebooks. I picked up John Adams by David McCullough for like a $1.50

I think it expires on July 13th.

You can read them on both a PC and a Pocket PC. They have them in various formats. I like the Mobipocket format on my IPAQ. Since I found out that libraries have these ebooks free for lending, I always go for this option rather than buying them unless I am desperate :-)

Thanks Laura, I didn't know I could do that. I'll make a stop at my county library today and check into this deal.
