Is this something new? Previously there was no problem reading Amazon books that were still on the Kindle, since the DRM is particular to the device, not to the account.

I wasn't aware anything had changed. I've heard of people doing "the dance," where they would register a friend's Kindle to their account, load books on the device they wanted to lend to their friend, deregister, then their friend would re-register the device. The books would remain readable until they were deleted. Apparently that was common before book lending...I can't say, I don't know anyone local that owns any sort of ereader. They're behind the times.

Re the OP: as you have problems with dexterity, is it within your means, or can you get a grant for Dragon Speech Recognition?
Just a thought. Don't know whether the mods will allow the link: http://www.nuance.com/for-individual...sion/index.htm Last edited by BookCat; 09-14-2012 at 05:18 AM. Reason: Add link to Dragon site |
