Hi,

I'm a (very) retired aerospace engineer, going on a 2 week tour of Egypt in 2 months. Includes tours, Nile cruise, etc.
To keep in touch via Wifi I'm planning to get another Nook, use it for email contact via our ISPs Webmail, besides the usual ebooks. Way cheaper than an Ipad, and not as heavy as a netbook. Only disadvantage is I'm not sure I can keep any sort of diary except by sending emails.

Any way to do that, maybe via notes on a document?

For me the typing on the tiny keyboard isn't too bad because I seem to have a delicate touch, works fine as long as I barely touch the screen.
