[crossi]

I've played with iPads in stores and I actually bought a Fire. I find I really dislike the Fire for pretty much everything. The weight seems uncomfortably high for reading and web browsing is awful. Even browsing Amazon's books is bad. Each time I go to the next page of books I need to expand the page again to get the text the right size. I keep selecting a book or other link when all I wanted to to was expand it or scroll and selecting one of two closely spaced links if one is just below the other is frustrating. It took me five tries once to get the right one. I haven't tried an eink reader with a touch screen but if they are as difficult to control as tablets then I probably will avoid them if at all possible. I take the Fire to work occasionally to use during my break but after half an hour of frustration with nothing accomplished I give up and go looking for a free computer terminal. Sorry about the rant but I've about given up on tablets and touch screens and am about ready to toss it as wasted money.
