hmmm…if it had a color screen and could play video or picture feeds from Flickr or my website, & better touch screen, then it might interest me… I don’t read many books…mostly blogs or listen to audiobooks, podcasts and music. Guess I’ll just wait until Apple releases (praying) a Mac Tablet this year… But those who read a lot I can see this being a joy to use. Great replacement for magazines, newspapers, and books.
The larger screen would be helpful, compared to the smaller one on the standard model. I’m not sure the prices should be so high on either of these models. It does include an unlimited monthly internet plan over 3G or Wifi, but that doesn’t justify the price to me, as 3G isn’t available in my city. And if I rely on wifi, then I might as well use my computer’s 24” screen and internet connection. I’m not convinced but will be anxious to see some reviews on the Kindle DX.
1 month agoToday’s logo on Google’s homepage is a unique one… in fact I couldn’t read it, so I clicked the logo to find out more information about today’s image. Apparently it’s in honor of Samuel Morse, the inventor of “morse code.” For more info visit the wiki here, Samuel F. B. Morse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
2 months agoI know, you’re asking, why am I posting a Windows article on a Mac fan boy’s site? Well, it’s simple. The latest marketing “plan” of Microsoft 7 is ridiculous. Why buy a netbook with Windows 7 Starter on it, and be stuck with a limited machine that can only run 3 apps at once?
<br>This just screams SWITCH TO MAC, more than anything…as the Mac OS comes with everything you need and nothing you don’t. One price for the OS with everything… $129 from Apple, but you can find discounts on Amazon under $100.
