What my spouse and i don’t understood is at truth the method that you are no longer actually far more smartly-appreciated than you may well be now. You are extremely intelligent. You already know just therefore significantly in terms of this issue, made me for my personal part picture it from a great deal of numerous angles. Its like people are not really interested except it can be something to try and do with Woman gaga! Your particular person stuffs outstanding. All the time handle that up!

I picked up and iPad 2 last December. I love it! I’m connected everywhere I go. Which for me is key. I love facetime. My current cover artist and I chat this way and it’s a lot easier than an email or even a phone conversation.

This is the only Apple product I have and already I see the ease in Apple products. *sigh*

Confession: Bought yet another copy of “Elements of Style” recently so I don’t dog-ear my hardback. There are a few sections I want to draw mustaches and horns on. Ah! this is a freedom of core expression one cannot express via any electronic device.

So, keep those crayons handy.

Jane, my best advice is to monitor yourself. Don’t let all this technology but the No or Log into Jane. It’s easy to allow… creeps up on ‘ya. What works for Jane, works with Jane and helps Jane.

Personally, I’m still refusing to blog or buy into smart phones; but, I don’t do what you do.

My splitapart Kenny has every device including a portable wi/fi. “Kim, I can be my own tower!”

Mmm.

Kindle: Very Good (But I have the old/original one)
A Real Book: Best
Hardback: A read, re-read, read me again book. And, of course, Atlas Shurgged as the paperback falls apart
Many of my books: Paid forward to the neighborhood libraries

So Jane: Don’t let technology do you. It’s a tool.

I talk to my Xoom.

The gestures and flow encourage me to read things I wouldn’t bother with on a my laptop (where I live most of the day).

The kindle app works well enough to read lighter fiction, but I still buy far more physical books and will treat myself to hardcovers of favourite authors forever.

I carry it to squeeze in reading while waiting for just about anything.

And I talk to it. The voice recognition is easier than screen typing longish notes when I’m kicked back reading with a glass of smokey brandy. Until I start slurring my words.

I miss newspapers when I don’t read them (the paper version, I mean). I try for paper when I can, but not as much as I used to. I read the headlines online, but interestingly I do it on the PC (24inch screen, cable) rather than on the iPad.

90% of my iPad use is reading books, and I absolutely love it for that. 90% of that is done at home. The only reason I don’t take it on the train is that I take a netbook and write there. The iPad doesn’t work for much more than notes.

The other 10% is a quick google of something I want to know. And I put my calendar in the iPad, not in my phone. I don’t know why.

I think it’s the best (and most expensive) eReader around.

On a weekend morning, walking out on the driveway to pick up my NYTimes, I love the heft of the paper and the quiet shuffle of its pages. Weekdays, reading it online is so different, like stepping through the screen to a more imperative world. I’m considering getting an iPad too, but think it will be useful in managing the Web rather than in the private joys of reading. But who knows?
