Hi from NYC
Just ordered the new Kindle Wi-Fi -- my first e-reader. Glad I found this board!
Can't wait 'til Santa arrives (on August 27th)! |

Thanks for all the welcomes.
happy_terd, you have one of the ... happiest ... usernames around. (Sono italo-americano ma non parlo la lingua tanto bene.... ) Jim, I just read your personal gadget history. Fascinating! (I can't imagine reading a book on a cellphone -- not even an iPhone. Maybe I just lack imagination.) Hard to believe, but I bought my first cell phone in '93. They were analog devices back then! |

1) Gonna jump from my chair, gonna fly high Gonna thump and cavort -- do you sigh, why? Ooh there's ants in my pants Gotta get up and dance I just sprang for a Kindle with Wi-Fi! 2) What a wonderful thing is a Kindle It's book that you don't fold or spindle With the flick of a switch You'll have classics or kitsch If your mind isn't blown then the wind'll. 3) To limerick a Kindle is nifty It's fun and it's really quite thrifty I've downloaded free books From all crannies and nooks Now I'm up to a thousand and fifty! C'mon, Santa! You can do it! |

Hi Viseguy and welcome to MobileRead. When I was a kid I thought the world stopped at the Hudson River and, you know, I still do.

Welcome to MobileRead, Viseguy.
Where in Brooklyn? I've lived in Bensonhurst and Bay Ridge years back, and have some familiarity with other parts of the borough. BTW: reading on a cellphone isn't all that unusual. My normal reader is a Palm OS PDA. It's nice to carry a library in your pocket. ______ Dennis |
