[Triskalleon]

I got a Fire HDX, unasked for, for Christmas. Felt like the Grinch's uncle telling the giver that it was so crippled by Amazon that it couldn't do any of things that I'd like to do with it, like run car apps or work with a Bluetooth GPS, so please send it back and give me the money instead. It's a great monument to mindless commerce, but as a personal computing device, it's the flea on the Grinch's rump. I would have gone for a Nexus 7, but got the money and bought a BIKE. Not that I'm so much a Luddite, but I'm getting bigger and bigger sitting on my rumpus. I also got a Steelcase Leap desk chair, so now I'm sitting more ergonomically on my rumpus and getting bigger and bigger with better posture. I can't wait for spring to arrive.

I bide my time downloading apps from the Play Store and Amazon App store and leaving reviews about them not working on Froyo (so why do they even OFFER the apps to me? Don't they know what OS versions the stuff they push will run on?).
