i'll try to take some photos tomorrow.
i'll see what i can do for the invisible gibbon, however i should tell you right now that i try to keep the cats far away from my liseuses since they can't resist stepping / sitting on any object nearby (seriously, if the entire bed is empty except for the telephone, the cat will curl up nice and comfy on top of the telephone. replace "telephone" with *any* object you could imagine including probably a giant cactus and it's always the same). also i'm not sure i have any balloonies handy. i hope you won't be too disappointed.

I really hoped very hard your friend would manage to get you a red one, as a matter of fact I think we all crossed our fingers for you, but that's what you get (and deserve, really) for being so nice with everyone  . |
i AM delighted !!! and yes, this red is *very* sexy.
i'm so glad i changed my mind from black !

I want one too now  . I meant of course "an intellectual tool that I use to improve brain functioning as I get older". I even think that if I transformed the claim in "a reading tool that I use to improve my cooking", my husband will be all for it.

yes, i also consider it "an intellectual tool that i use to improve brain functioning as i get older." and don't we all need one of those ?

i agree !! i noticed a difference when i compared my 700 to hadrien's 600 ; but, it was under bright lights and the difference was not too extreme. but seeing both of them side by side tonight under dimmer more diffuse lighting, it's really striking ! i never had trouble with my 700 but i can tell i'm going to be even happier with the 600 !

By the way, my husband happened to be home for lunch with the Fedex truck arrived, so he knows all about my new reader. He tried to give me a hard time about it, but couldn't keep a straight face. He's of the opinion that money spent on technology is money well spent. Marrying a fellow geek was one of the best decisions I ever made!
