I gave them these readers so they could indulge their love of reading despite their inability to stockpile dead tree books. Both of these people are heavy library users and would benefit from the ability to get ebooks from the library, and neither could afford to pay for library ebooks.
I just wanted to jump in and say thank you for being so generous! I am sure your friends are happy to be able to read.
