Kudos to your mother!

Not so far fetched really... senior citizens are just glomming on to this technology as far as I can tell! Our library had a reader play day this winter. Most of the people there were new reader users. (The librarian took a hand vote to see how long people had had their readers, the vast majority had gotten 'em for Xmas.) Of the people there, I felt QUITE young at 53... I think barring one of the librarians, there was only one person younger than myself!

Seriously, everyone looked to be at *least* 10 years older than me, and one little old lady, who could've been 85 easy, had the sole NOOKcolor in the room, LOL!
