My daughter sailed away on Christmas Day in 2005 and with her family has since put 60,000 nautical miles onto their boat. She bought two Sony Readers and I got a Gutenberg Guy to provide a DVD of a thousand public domain books. The Sonys have since been supplemented by three Kindles, and all five devices are still working fine (the Kindles) or more or less fine (the Sonys) after having been north of the Arctic Circle, south to Antarctica, twice transAtlantic and once transPacific, and two seasons in the tropics.
