If the utility to convert PDFs to a format viewable on the 1150 had come out just a bit earlier, I might still be using it myself.
Don't get me wrong, I love my iLiad, but the eBookwise 1150 really is a good liseuse, and worth recommending.

Which version would that be? I know we've discussed this previously here at MR, but a) I'm too lazy to try to find the previous discussion and b) things may have changed since then.
|
dunno. see a) and b) and apply both of them to me.
i just remember there were several versions, and one of them was "heavy duty for houses occupied by fur-factory freeloaders."

Not my dialect, but I think the correct spelling for both usages you've indicated is "youse."

noted.
(i still prefer "y'all" myself).

After I get my two Shih-tzus groomed in the winter, Ryleigh likes to put little sweaters on them. They do look adorable, but dog sweaters can cost around $20-25. If it were up to her, they would have a whole wardrobe! At least they don't shed. I have a picture of them on my personal page if you are interested. There names are Jade and Asia keeping with the origination of the breed.

crikey ! my cats will have to do with home-made sweaters, at those prices. and i don't care what their friends are wearing.
