This morning my husband was asking me if I was still happy I got my Vox (an early Christmas present for him) and what I liked best about it. (To create context, I will explain that a little while before getting the Vox, my netbook broke and we discontinued my cell phone, because I think it is crazy to spend so much on something so frivolous). In this conversation we came to the conclusion that the Vox really helps me not miss having a phone so much.

It isn't a great replacement for my netbook though. The Vox is a little quicker to start up than my netbook, but my netbook is much better for writing (I like to write and blog).

What I really needed was an "eReader with Benefits". I am passionate about reading, so my favourite thing about the Vox is the Kobo app itself, but the benefits was just what I needed in my life right now.

I love my Vox, but am still not prepared to suggest it to people as their only (and first) eReader. For someone, like me, looking for an eReader/Tablet (especially in Canada), it is a great option!
