Kindle

I guess it’s time to comment on Deb’s Kindle that she loaned me. I absolutely hate and love it.

Love:
It is perfect for traveling. I don’t have to carry anything and yet can have a million books. One has to be careful though. I “unplugged” the charger cord and only had the USB part and the gizmo that the USB goes into was still in the outlet. It’s a good thing that I’m so anal as to check that I had each thing I was supposed to have. It’s easy to buy a book – who needs the wireless download. Many good books are there for very reasonable prices.

Hate:
It ain’t a book. I want paper. I want to turn pages. I want to bend pages over. I want to write in the book (realistically to never look at it again), I want to pass the book on. I want to loan the book. I want to trade the book. This proprietary bullshit is ….just bullshit.

However:
I’m traveling and love is better than hate any time.

Check out this blog Deb – I enjoy his books
