Ode to my beloved Stanza, alas she is gone
Stanza, my reader, my love and my one... upgraded to 5 and alas she was gone! Downloaded MegaReader, to it I go oh shucks, I say, no brightness control. So many apps, my what a mess, Tried Bluefire Reader, oh no, short on OPDS! IBooks, a laugh! no night mode and more, And MegaReader? No italics! My what a Bore! Hum, Kindle syncs across my devices, but my! her format is not even the nicest! Kobo, no iTunes, no browser or search, Leaves my desires in such a big lurch. Stanza where are you, Oh may I ask? Amazon, please, rethink your task! . Last edited by 1611mac; 10-31-2011 at 02:26 PM. |

Amazon is just being a bi- about this.

Can't help it. I miss Stanza too much to persist with any other readers. I've downgraded to 4.1 again and will just have to bite the bullet over the apps I can no longer use (fortunately not that many, and I dont use them that often). Just doing my first sync as I type. :-/

Perhaps Hallmark should come out with a sympathy card for Stanza users.....

This post made me think about the Buddy Holly song "It's Too Late"
