![]() I bought the Poetic Slimline Case $13 as I have two of them for the HDX and love them. Luckily I got them on sale so I am only losing $10 for both. I gotta pack up the HDX today and get it off tomorrow so hopefully I get my refund before Black Friday as I am pretty broke till then but the Nexus 7 16GB will be here on Tuesday. All paid for with Swagbucks. ![]() This is going to be a very slim book buying week for me due to buying the tablet but I gave my original KF to hubby. ![]() Last edited by Blossom; 11-17-2013 at 03:09 PM. |

Believe it or not Amazon sells them directly!
![]() ![]() I originally told him my plans were to downgrade to a HD model but I just can't go through anymore replacement games again if there is something wrong with it so I ordered the Nexus 7 after playing with it at Walmart two weekends back it's a lovely tablet. The HDX has more vibrant color but here's the thing. The HDX blue LEDs are not optimal for reading in the dark! I got alot eye strain and a headache trying though ![]() ![]() |

Totally forgot it was Sunday
![]() Here's my list. I was good, too. After the last two weeks I needed to be ![]() I also used Sony coupon to replace Sandra K Moore's Without a Trace since the Kobo version I purchased was one of the awful format ones. Another bad reading week for me. I am up to Nora Roberts in my Calibre check and reconvert project. After her I think Jill Shalvis and Shannon Stacety are the only lots-of-books authors I've yet to do as I've already done all the Karen Templetons (her books are what started me on this re-do in the first place) Read:

My son got me the Fire 7 inch ($139) and I love it. But I only wanted / need something to read pdf documents on. For me it is perfect. I don't need glasses but wear them for reading to prevent eye strain. I m debating between the Nexus 7 and the iPad mini that will be on sale at Wal-mart black Friday. I really just need someone to tell me buy this one (or that one) and I will be happy. I can't decide.
I also need a case for the fire but have not found one I like. |

I'd be surprised if you didn't have a really hard time moving back from the pixel density of the HDX and Nexus 7.2 back to the Kindle HD. Maybe not for gaming or watching video but you should really notice it as a reader. I've actually paid more than $400 for my last tablet (GT 7.7) and dumped it in favor of the Nexus 7.2, the screen is that much improved! |

Weekly confession:
I confess that it's really getting hard to find books to buy. ![]() Read Wrecked - Shiloh Walker - 4.0 Mortal Ties (Lupi #9) - Eileen Wilks - 4.0 and a bunch of short stories to get myself caught up on Kelley Armstrong's Women of the Other World series. All 3.0-4.0, she's pretty good with short stories but probably because I'm invested in the characters from the novels. |
