SB,

Thanks for the reply. An iPod Touch (which I had but sold pretty quick) is just a teensy bit too small.

I'm simply flabbergasted that such a device doesn't exist . . . is there even a single company working on something like that?

But at least you've relieved me of a fruitless search *sigh* . . . I'd love an iPad but the price tag is just too high. Ferchrissakes, I have five computers already, including a very nice MacBook . . . what do I need a keyboardless laptop for?

How about a tiny notebook computer? I'm a Mac guy but I could handle a Windows interface if it enabled me to JUST READ A BOOK IN THE DARK . . .

Thanks very much for the reply!!!

Nick
