I would have thought that a room full of teachers would have at least a few people familiar with electronic media and ebooks. (No ipads or tablets either.)
That's what I thought about doctors and nurses, Betty. But back when Chris was getting fitted for his hearing aids and we were in and out of the audiologists office, every time I'd take out my EZ Reader someone would stop and have to look at it. I thought it was fun - especially the one time it was a doctor who otherwise looked like he was in a big hurry but acted like he just couldn't resist. Then there was the time I took it to one of my appointments, and the nurse caught me reading while waiting for the doctor in the exam room. Once I explained what I had, she took off with the reader to show the other nurses and the doctor. I've always wondered how many sales I made that day...
