Thanks for the help. It appears this is the only place to get them, as the public library's that I mentioned do not carry any ebooks at all. You can however use your public library card at the Ohio eBooks Project site to check out a variety of ebooks. Looks like they have a good selection, but the problem is that the ebooks are mostly only in audio format (OverDrive??) and if they are in the printed format they are only in pdf or mobireader, of which both stink in my opinion.
Great idea, but still sadly lacking. One more reason for a standard container to be a good thing, IF they ever get around to doing something serious about it that is.
