Why upgrade from paper?

Well Bob, I still love paper. But in China I cannot buy many English books. And those that are available are reprints of classics which are all available as ebooks. There are a few new novels here, but only at import prices.

One of my great pleasures when I am back in the "west" is to sit down with a real paper book. Just like old times! I am a regular library patron there too.

Now I have a problem. My TRGpro is having an intermittent problem that signals its impending demise. Handera is sounding iffy about their ability to repair it. I don't know why. They built it. They do not seem to have refurbished units. So I am looking for a replacement -- another TRGpro. Ebay has none at the moment.

I am tempted by the new Palm TX, but it appears the power adapter will not work here.
