Welcome to MR!
Alcohol and firearms don't mix. Nothing wrong with them seperately, though. |

Hi tequila0341 and welcome to MobileRead.
When I was a kid, I thought the world stopped at the Hudson River and, you know, I still do. |

I think that the Kindle is better than my Aluratek Libra Pro for certain things. 1) The Kindle has customization features where you can put your name on it and a search function, I have neither; 2) I believe that a Kindle has a backlighting on it so that you can read in the dark, I can not; 3) Kindles can take notes in the margins, I can not; 4) Kindles have dictionaries in them, mine does not. My Libra Pro costs a lot less then a Kindle so its sort of you get what you pay for.

Welcome, Tequila, from a fellow subway rider - this one from DC. I worked in NY for decades and rode the subways much. The only fear I ever had was finding that I just finished my book and had another 40 minutes left to my ride with NOTHING TO READ!
