Every evening when I leave work, I intend to go straight home and get some things done around the house. But all of the bars I pass on the way home are too distracting, and I end up sitting in one and drinking til midnight. Can't something be done about my car, which has those darn see-through windows which don't block my view of the bars? How am I expected to resist?
More seriously, I agree with several earlier posts on two points. First, I bought my Nook Color for the very reason that it is a multi-purpose device, and it eliminates the need for me to carry several devices when I travel. When I intend to read on it, I read on it. I don't get pop ups about emails, texts, viagra offers or messages from my alien overlords. If you're getting all kinds of "pop-ups", change your settings. Second, if you are that easily distracted from reading, maybe you don't really want to be reading. That's your issue, not your device's.
