This is a nice device, but doesn’t work well with my reading habits. Many major literary writers (including Nobel or Pulitzer prize winners) have nothing or almost nothing available for kindle. I’m rather shocked. Being out of the country I was hoping I could just purchase books on kindle, so I wouldn’t have to search out hard copies of English language books. I’ve only purchased a couple of things in six months. I just never found what I was looking for. And I’m not talking about anything esoteric. I’m talking about well-known works by writers like Herman Hesse, M. Scott Momaday, Angela Carter and Carson McCullers. Pretty major names in literary fiction. Disappointing.

I picked up Twilight by Stephenie Meyer last year during one of Borders’ Buy 2 get 1 promotion (I know this because the sticker was still on the cover). At the time I knew nothing about the book but I was intrigued by the premise and so picked it up. Since that time this book has become a phenomenon among teens and adults alike (at this posting there were 4500+ copies cataloged on librarything). One of the main reviews on Amazon even calls Twilight “an exquisite fantasy.” On Librarything, Amazon and Barnes & Noble this book was predominately rated at 5 stars. So by the time I got around to reading to this book I was excited thinking that I had a real gem of a tale to sink into.

In fact, Twilight left me stunned…but not in a good way. Not in the “oh my this is one of the best books that I have ever read” sort of stunned. Instead all I kept thinking about was that the main character Bella, who is the narrator of the story, was obsessed. When Bella first moves to Forks, Washington and first encounters the eningmatic and overly beautiful boy Edward Cullen she is intially put off by him….mainly because he has such violent reactions of mood when he is near her. This dislike that Bella has for Edward only lasts a chapter or two before she is drawn to him. He is so handsome after all, how can she not fall for him? Even though initally he is very rude and mean to her. Yet still she yearns for Edward. Then, all too quickly, when Edward starts to loosen up and start to really charm Bella her yearning turns to a deep and all consuming obsession with him. So much so that it isn’t long before she wants to spend every waking moment with him…..and that anytime apart is pure agony.

Overall, this book scares me. This is a book that many young teen girls are picking up and devouring and thinking that its a true love story. That Bella and Edward are as star-crossed as Romeo and Juliet. That their relationship is something to look up to…..to emulate. When in fact its far from

I received my iPod about 4 months ago, and it has crashed twice. I lost $30 from the iTunes store due to it crashing. I had downloaded music on my iPod because my computer had a bad virus and I could not upload it to my computer. Therefore when my computer crashed I lost every song I downloaded and iTunes does not allow you to redownload music. Now don’t get me wrong, I love this, it’s a great music playing device, great video player and almost everything else. With the new apple update that is going to come out that allows multitasking this will be great! I would not have lived through my 5 month computer virus without it. It is not durable at all, the back is all scratched up due to just light use (I’d suggest a case). The app store is fantastic, “There’s an app for that”. I would suggest this product (with an extended warranty!) to anyone with a little extra cash. With little consumer support from Apple and small improvements this could be perfect. Until then I’ll just stick with my computer being perfect.

I love the OtterBox Defender. I just put the White on Black version on my Iphone for work. I’ve had lots of problems with dust and dirt getting in my ports, this case has Very nice plugs for all the ports. The only access to the actual phone is at the bottom where there are two little tiny hole for the Mic and The Speaker.

Cons:
EXPENSIVE.
BULKY (but the belt clip helps a lot)
