OFF-TOPIC: How many e-readers does one need? I am curious about this since much of the people here have 2-5 or beyond e-readers... I will understand 2 e-readers (but even that I can't really warp my mind about it completely) but 3 and more? I really want the Glo HD but I have ZERO justification in buying it except the wanting and wanting.... sigh #TooManyRichKidsHere
If you want me to call a kid with my 52 years old, I would not slap u in the face but why.. I have an old sony 650..it is almost the only device with physical buttons,aluminium.. i can't say goodbye to it.
I have myself a Glo and an Aura HD, I first had the Aura HD,perfect but a little to big to take it with me to bed,and a lot of times in the past I forgot it,then you are in bed,can climb out of it,go down all stairs,prevent 5 cats from getting in the living room at night to get my reader.
Have been hospitalised a couple of times, then the Aura HD isn't that handy.
So I have a tv upstairs, a second pair of glasses (for the same reason) and a Glo next my bed with the same books on it as my Aura HD.
I have a second Nexus 7 for the same reasons,it is just there when I want it,or need it.
There is a second Glo, for my girlfriend.
I can see the difference between my Aura HD and my Glo very much, so if the Glo can be the same as the Aura I would like that, so that is why I will buy the Kobo HD.
Why would I sell my old readers when you can't get near to 50% (if you are lucky) for it,then I rather keep it myself,even use it for spare parts if needed.
Or I can please someone with it.
Why ?
I don't smoke, I don't drink,don't drive a car, would I have to give my money to the tax collectors ?
I work hard for it, so if I want, I buy, if my life ends, I can't take my money with me but I can say that I lived the way I want and no one is fighting for the money I left..maybe for the readers,but then I had all the fun with it while I was still there.
