Greetings from SEMO
Good Morning fellow Mobile Readers,
My name is John and I'm from Southeast Missouri. I've been an avid book reader since the age of six or seven, when I was reading Tom Swift Adventures and Dig Allen Stories. To this day, SciFi remains my mainstay, but I'm an equal opportunity reader. My first reader was a Kindle K3, which I also got for my wife after she got interested in it and 'thought she might like reading in one'. Being something of a geek, I had to upgrade to the Kindle Touch when it came out. Then I went and left the damn thing in the seat-back of an AA flight in DFW. Even with ID all over it, I never saw that again. I think it was a Freudian Slip, as I really didn't like the feel of the K5, compared to the K3. Got a K4 to replace it and am much happier with it, though I periodically attempt to turn pages by touching the screen. Coveted my dad's Kindle Fire, and have tossed around the idea of the KFHD . . . but am thinking about one of the Nexus devices. I have an ASUS TFT201 for a tablet . . . for now.  Just maybe, a smaller tablet sometime? If they would put an SD/microSD in the Nexus! No matter what I do there, will keep something like the K4 as it is a perfect size/weight for travel.I pay for my addictions by working as a flight nurse on an air medical helicopter. Been a nurse for 33 years and flown part-time and full-time for over 20. Other than reading, I dabble with computers, a '47 Plymouth, bow hunting a little firearm hunting and we travel when we can. Cheers! jT |
