Question Books from the Library
My local Library here in King County Washington advised that the nook or the sony e-reader (also IPad) can download books from their ebook catalog and that the Kindle can not, that they are blocked. I live near (and sometimes work at ) Amazon, so most people around here have the Kindle. However being able to borrow books from the library for a month like I do now for print and audio MP3 books is very appealing. Any info from nook owners on borrowing from the libraries would be appreciated. I am not sure if this is available from any but large Metro area libraries with an abundance of funds.

Thanks
Trudy

PS if you don't here from me much for awhile I am going back to work for 4 months (contract at Amazon again)
