Stumped: I know that the Argos return policy is good, but we now plan to go and see the Clara in a physical shop - probably John Lewis. In Argos it's impossible to see items before you buy them.

As regards the wifi sensitivity: it appears to be the devices themselves, for example I always got a headache at the point where the anntenae (sp) are situated in the upper corners of the laptop monitor. When I was the last owner-occupier (well, almost) in a studentified urban area I was then surrounded by wifi networks, but now I'm in the leafy suburbs where many of the residents are retired. There are very few wifi signals here and the mobile reception is poor (I have a dumb phone, but mostly use a landline). The point is: I don't get headaches when the internet is wired, but if I switch the pc's wifi on within an hour I'll have a terrible ache.

John F. Restocking Fee! What a cheek! So they charge for the hassle of putting it back on the shelf?

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this question, but could I buy ebooks from Amazon and put them on the Clara without going through Calibre first?

Thanks for so much help.
