Are there good chess books available for the ereader? I think most of the electronic chess books I have heard about are chessbase files and not ereader compatible.

Looking forward to the review of the ereader and also curious about the best places to find free ebooks of good quality.
I have found a lot of chess book in PDF format in emule. Possible they are illegaly copied, but you can download them. The only drawback is that most of them are "image-scanned", so the reader dont recognize text and can not resize them in different zoom options available. But if you see them in landscape you will not dissapointed.

For other books which are not about chess, but bestsellers and universal literature (in Spanish), I have found lots of sites that give you free access to them. All novelties are available to download. If you are interesting in spanish literature I can give you the links, altough only be for curiosity.....
