. . . and that is where I draw the line. Buying a Kindle just because. . .
I need a lot better reason than that to buy such a thing.

I remember when I started with kobo vox years ago, still have it. Then it was kobo ARCs, still have them (about 3). Then android, 2 of 'em, using only 1. I must have been a nut case then -probably still is.

At least with the kobos, I could sideload on them plus I could download my books from my kobo library locally.
