Starson 17,

Thanks for your reply. The portion of your post I took exception to was this quote of yours:

"I suspect you'll get some more info relating to your concerns if you express them clearly. Unfortunately, I'm not the one to help - I would never buy a Kindle (I dislike intentionally crippled and locked up devices with a passion)..."

It just felt unnecessarily critical not only of me and my attempt to accurately communicate the issues, but then in an off-topic rant on Amazon and the Kindle which was not germane to the issue. Especially in light of contact I received from other members who stated they understood perfectly well what I was describing.

That said, I take you at your word that you meant no insult and so I shall regard it as water under the bridge and put it behind us. I am happy to have your assistance or insights in the future.
