Gave it a good brushing too.<br />For as humid as it was this morning, the 88 (f) degrees of the pool really felt refreshing.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />DaveDave Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15038109966699072504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9432310.post-54840094959148777062011-06-17T08:25:44.720-06:002011-06-17T08:25:44.720-06:00Thanks for your comments Dave ...

I've been looking at the Kindle DX on eBay and you still have to pay approx. $250.00 or so for even a good used one. <br />Therefore, I think testing is in order.<br /><br />Keep up the good work, but don't neglect the pool either!!<br /><br />JulianJRinSChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07221452682380379316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9432310.post-54925645705632842872011-06-16T14:04:50.360-06:002011-06-16T14:04:50.360-06:00Hi Julian,

They're not as 'cuddly' as a paperback; nor are they as comfortable to hold in one hand; my Sony is particular about bright light, as in glare.<br /><br />Having said all that, once you discover your comfortable way to hold it, you can do some serious reading with it. I forget I'm holding a machine and can enjoy 'watching the movie' with the eReader, just as I can with a paperback or other book.<br />And, like I said, I have about 600 books in a variety of categories on this thing (well, really on one SD card). I don't think we have 600 physical books in the house, and we have a lot.<br />The other thing, I like saving trees, not that I'm a tree hugger, but there needs to be something other than killing trees so I can read.<br />Oh, yes. One thing I forgot. I don't think it's necessarily the eReader's fault, but a combination of their fault and the book publisher's fault. There's no reason under the sun that the formatting of books on what, after all, is a computer, needs to be any different from the physical book's formatting. Regardless of what type-size the reader picks, or the machine, or whatever. I think for expediency and saving the almighty dollar, the two have figured we'll put up with whatever crappy formatting they want to foist off on us. That is the thing I detest and hate the most about the electronic reading experience. Especially for the cost of the e-book. It's tantamount to robbery.<br />But, what do I know? That's just my opinion.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />DaveDave Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15038109966699072504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9432310.post-73454930767504539852011-06-16T13:46:59.889-06:002011-06-16T13:46:59.889-06:00I find myself spending a lot more time reading tha...I find myself spending a lot more time reading than on the tube. Question Dave... how do you like the Sony Reader? I've been looking at the Kindle DX but haven't tried the Sony yet. Someday... when Karol actually retires... I'll need to take one on my travels to places like Belize for a month or two.<br /><br />If I spend a fair amount of time in a hammock overlooking the water I might actually read a good number of books -- more than I want to take physically..<br /><br />What are your thoughts, both good and bad on these readers??<br /><br />JulianJRinSChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07221452682380379316noreply@blogger.com
