When you say Connect, you could be meaning the store or the software. It's best to specify just to be on the safe side that nobody misunderstands. Just say I use Connect meaning the software and Connect Store meaning the online shop. I just wanted to make sure everyone understood that the issues mentioned have nothing to do with the software on your Windows system.

I like to use ConnSoft and ConnStore, it's clear but shorter to type.

"Connect Reader" Takes Courageous Step in Deleting Duplicates
In a spot-check of The Death of Artemio Cruz, by Carlos Fuentes, I'm happy to report that "Connect Reader" [the place where you buy books] has taken an unprecendented step in deleting the two (2) extra listings for this one title. (It was listed 3 times on the same page.)

Why do I characterize my headline with the word "Courageous," you may ask. Very simple: This means that their database has just been decremented by two (2) less than it's total number.

For a company that advertises pride in the number of books available and, as competition begins to increase to the extent where numbers may be an overiding factor [read: MobilePocket], "Connect Reader" should be applauded for correcting this error and for striving to maintain integrity within its database.

Okay, now I'm confused.

I mean that when I click on "Connect Reader" to look at books or to buy books.

(I'll correct this right now.)
