Task #4 - Downloading E-Books

I was interested in the Consumer Report article on ereaders and education.  The article considers the educational aspects of electronic books (ebooks) and what impact they may have on helping children to learn to read the Consumer Report article regarding ereaders and education. Some studies believe that ereaders may actually help a struggling reader. 
For me, I still enjoy the feel of a book in my hands and as I have a beautiful collection of bookmarks, I am not considering buying an ereader, yet.  As I am planning a possible extended vacation at the end of next summer, I think an ereader purchase is in my future. 
The first three steps are:
1.  Download and install Adobe Digital Edition
2.  Create an account and activate it
3.  Check device and remove from sleep mode, plug into computer and authorize device
