I've just confirmed my request to Alex Turcic, to delete my account.
Ideally all my threads as well, but I don't know whether this can and will be done as well. And I won't be able to tell, as I won't visit the website any longer after my account is deleted.

I'm very well into active discussions. But I'm not into scatology or bashing.
Especially, if it's about a poll in a user forum.
To some it may be their livelihood (which wasn't threatened or belittled in any way by me) but to me it's a hobby.
As in "being fun".
I find the tone less and less fun, not just in my threads and concerning me.
So it's time to move on.
I'll keep buying stuff, but those gadgets never will be half as important for me, as they seem to be for some others. And even then I don't get the aggression. But fortunately enough, I don't have to take notice...

mg:

Go if you must, but you don't have to go to the lengths of self-immolation. Leave the account, change the settings so you don't get notified...maybe down the road you'll feel differently. I wish you would stay, but I certainly understand if you feel you cannot.

Whether you can see this or not, wishing you the best.

You have mentioned email signatures in your description.
I have a complex email signature, not only with HTML, but a logo and other details.
In Microsoft Outlook I can copy the entire signature and use it as my standard signature.
On my smartphones I cannot even copy this signature as a graphic. The links would not be working any longer in a graphic, but it would be a compromise.
But my favorite solution would be to work the same way as with Microsoft Outlook.
Is this possible on Blackberry Passport? Or on any other device except Microsoft Outlook?

What aceflor said! (I think--my German is sehr rusty.)

I've always considered mobileread participants to be extremely lucky to have a resource like you, mgmueller. It just never happens that a discerning consumer tries out so many devices and shares his extremely worthwhile opinions and reasonings on each.

Whenever I think about buying a new device, I come to this thread and wade through it all to find anything you might say about said device. Thanks for everything. This is terrible news.

I have 2 fantastic sleeves, they both would protect it well enough even without cover.
And then you just could use Surface Pro with any bluetooth or USB keyboard. Or via docking station. Or...
That's what I did. I bought a Surface Pro 2, but won't buy the type cover. I prefer to use a disconnected keyboard so I can move it relative to the screen. I bought a nice sleeve but am still in the process of finding a good keyboard (I am looking at the new wireless microsoft natural keyboard...)

I don't know if you're a "pounder" like me, but the Naturals keyboard didn't even make it 3mos with me, before the lettering wore off. It doesn't matter to me--touch typist--but I share the house with someone who does have to look at the keys, so that went flying right out the window. I've yet to find a keyboard that lasts even 6 months, lettering-wise. I was going to give up and just buy a stack of Waves, from Logitech (I like the ergo shape), as that's what I have now, and mostly like, but ...it's just frustrating as hell.

My previous Naturals (I got two, one for work and one for private use) were missing some letters, indeed. Not that I'd notice and my husband can't use my keyboard anyway, as he can't work on a natural :P I even completely wore down that small thingie on the j and f (which was the main reason I bought a new one, placing my fingers became annoying!)

I like the form of the new ones, they're less bulky and yet have exactly the same form...

I've also seen a quasi-ergo keyboard with Cherry MX'es, so I might look at that. I just spend too many hours a day keying, to not have at least an angle to the two halves; the IBM's are indeed tres-durable, but straight as a board. ;-)

Yes, I forgot, due to the keyboard post: ditto on this question?
