I'd feel too guilty. I picked up four of the eink Nooks at the Radio Shack clearance so I figured I exploited their incompetence enough. |

I'm just not much of an old testament kinda guy. I wouldn't even wish what they richly deserve on the BPHs, no matter how many despicable clauses they hide in their jointly-drafted predatory contracts. It's a slippery road: first you wish they get everything they deserve and before you know it you're publishing internet manifestos from a cabin in Montana. Best not to get started, even for an Onion article. |

I wonder how long before someone prints out that onion article, carries it into the store, and "innocently" shows it to an employee just to observe the reaction.

$10 for the Nook STR, $20 for the Glowlight, $7 for the M-Edge cases.
Three stores within a 15 minute drive. The last one had a ton. The whole bundle came in at $88 plus tax. They also had Kindles at $30 but I wanted the nooks to hack. This was last fall... Haven't been back to the third one...I wonder if they still have Nooks... |

A fringe benefit of hanging 'round here.
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=212659 (And a bit less terrific than I remembered... add a ten spot to each Nook. $19 and $29.) They say the memory is the second thing to go... Last edited by fjtorres; 06-14-2014 at 07:23 PM. |
