eReaders

If you've been thinking about an eReader for Christmas (or just because) but can't decide which is the best for for your needs, check out the excellent articles at Dear Author. The first compares dedicated eReaders and the second looks at multifunction tools such as PDAs, iPhones and mini PCs. I'm still happy with my PDA which doesn't stop me windowshopping and wanting all the new gadgetry.

I don't need a mini PC. I know I don't. The pic is a miniHP which I absolutely Do. Not. Need. Just. Because. Of. The. Prettiness.

Actually, who said need had anything to do with it.

You want it. Get it.

I'm all for instant gratification :-)

LOL. Don;t you love spending other people's money? Am thinking about how I can justify the want into the need...

Hey, I saw these at our local electronics store. If I hadn't bought a laptop this year I'd definitely be getting one. Regular size keyboard and screen size was the absolute seller for me.

BUY IT! :-)

Perhaps there will be some bargains in the after Christmas sales. Which is when I will be doing our Christmas shopping, quite likely.

They are cute and shiny but trust me... not all that writer-friendly! I bought one just before Christmas cos hubby was sick of me always being on our only computer. Within a week, I'd given him the MiniPC and was back to the faithful 'normal' size laptop :)

And I bought a lovely pink cover for it, which he refuses to use and all!
Rach!
