So some of you know how much I have wanted an ebook device. I read more than I knit probably and I have quite a collection of ebooks, they take up much less physical space than the books I have in every room of the house (minus the bathrooms). Anyway I wanted one because its not always cozy to read on my desktop and its certainly impossible to curl up with my laptop (I’ve tried and just got a sore neck) Anyway I finally found a place to get it that allowed returns if you hated it. So I bought it. It might be the best device I have ever purchased. I’ve read one book on it and really enjoyed it. I don’t skim like I do on desktop and its so small and portable I can keep it in the kitchen and still watch dinner being made. The cover it comes with is kind of fug though so I plan on getting a black one soon. Also…although you do have to reformat a bit…HELLO DIGITAL KNITTING PATTERNS. I can keep all my current patterns in there and if I wanted to I could even type up my notes as I went along. Also can you just say fantastic battery life? Anyway on to knitting…The first sleeve is finished. YAY, GO ME, and all that. I don’t have a photo because I had very little sleep and I didn’t feel like breaking out the camera. So you’ll get an ALMOST FO shot later this week. The sleeve is a bit well ultra fitted but I figured better that than bat wings.
I am so envious! I have the Kindle saved in my wish list (nudges boyfriend), but I might have to buy one of these after my vacation, if I still can, and easily clear up a good 10 square feet of my living room!
We are one step closer to living on the Enterprise, aren’t we? Do you call it your tablet?
I recently realized how much I miss reading, but I still need the books in audio format so that I can knit or ride a bike (without falling off, har!) or stare at cats or whatever at the same time. I’ve been geeking out to Science News.
PADD, sorry. Do you call it your PADD?
