Hi natasha_fawn, thanks for your reply:

$399 to $200 ...
$100 to $199 ...
It would be easier to read if the middle category read "$200 to $399" to be consistent.
You're right. Fixed. Thank you!

Agreed. Will do soon. Thanks for going easy on me on the omission.

Hmm, probably not just you... What I was trying to say was if you buy an ebook in its common format for the ereader, would you also be able to read the ebook on your PC, Mac, cell phone, or tablet computer.

How about this: "Do ebooks purchased for the ereader also work on PCs, Macs, cell phones, and tablets?"

Beyond wording, I almost wonder whether there's such a high proliferation of software for these extra devices to enable reading of ebooks that maybe the factor should be retired for lack of differentiating ability. Thoughts?

Thanks. I like to give credit properly. Also, when I'm researching a purchase, I like to keep links to persuasively subjective posts on factors important to me in case I have to revisit to re-read the supporting argument in light of new information I encounter later. Hopefully others will find similar use of the references.

I appreciate the compliment tonight.
