But then again, it isn't my money.<br /><br />As for the Kindle, I've been toying with the same idea. I have a bit of a problem with my vision, and I think it might be easier for me to read. Just like you, I can't seem to bring myself to place the order. You go first and let me know how you like it.Bella Rumhttp://bellarum.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9030581.post-56995927057131365922009-06-11T05:44:35.333-07:002009-06-11T05:44:35.333-07:00Life is short.

I got a reconditioned one through Amazon for $299. I read somewhere that it's much better to go with the repackaged deal than a used one. <br /><br />He (the would-be recipient) announced that Apple is coming out with something next year that will "kick the Kindle", so part of me knows the Kindle will ultimately be mine. Is that selfish? :)Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18356998698106275372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9030581.post-51603883643695970472009-06-10T13:13:27.103-07:002009-06-10T13:13:27.103-07:00The Kindle can be your reward for not buying the M...The Kindle can be your reward for not buying the Miata.Kurthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03076973960956565537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9030581.post-82497866638300046562009-06-10T12:32:04.284-07:002009-06-10T12:32:04.284-07:00Kindle?

Nah, get that car!<br /><br />with the library, my strategy is to go in, grab each and every book that vaguely appeals to me, to the point where I can't carry another one, and I take them home. I peruse them for the few nuggets they're good for and occasionally find something worth savoring. I try to take a list with me of titles I've heard that I liked the sound of. The radio is usually a good source for that.Nan Patiencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15017878043618913527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9030581.post-49398352726861575222009-06-10T12:19:40.528-07:002009-06-10T12:19:40.528-07:00I vote for the car.

I came *this* close to buying one, back in the days when buying a car was part of the things I did. <br />Plus<br />a) you have a superior reason for wanting the Miata. The best reason for wanting being wanting. And<br />b) it's so much more money you may end up saving the $353 by not spending the $16 000 - if you get my drift.mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15912364908606799053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9030581.post-7251580734967724372009-06-10T09:52:39.995-07:002009-06-10T09:52:39.995-07:00Dude!

Plus I hate buying technological stuff because it becomes so quickly outdated. It's easier to just hang out and wait for the next generation, which inevitably means not buying anything at all!
