Vandy here - Hello!
Hi, All.

My name is Gary and I go by Vandy on the 'net. You can use either name to chat with me.

I've just recently joined the Mobileread site and am looking forward to "getting into" the site more.

I am getting a Kindle 3 WiFi for my birthday (7 October, I turn 60) and am very excited about it.

I guess I'm a bit of a computer geek. Ive' been involved with and have used computers in business since 1973 and at home since 1981.

I currently have two desktops and one laptop along with a 60GB iPod and a 64GB iPod Touch and a Verizon 3G cell phone. The Kindle will be another "weapon" in my electronic "arsenal".

I am looking forward to getting to know everyone and chatting with you. From what I've read, we've lost a quite a wonderful person in Patricia. My condolences to her family and God's grace be upon them.

Take good care and I'll chat with you soon!

Regards,

Gary (Vandy)
Durham, NC

Y'know. Geoff, there is excitement in the whole statement -- even if it is "guarded". Somehow, I was cool with 59. However, 60 sounds so old...

Regards,

Gary
