[Dialogue] Xmas advice needed!

[Nancy Trask]

Many public libraries provide free e-books, so you might want to contact your 
library to find out which e-readers are compatible with their systems.  My 
library also provides free downloadable audiobooks, and most MP3 players are 
compatible.  With the e-books, at my library, the Kindle is definitely not 
compatible, but the Nook & iPad & other e-readers are.

Just a thought!

Kids gave me an Ipad for my 65th birthday.  Now I am cool.  Read one book on it. 
 Book books are actually better, I think, but it was fun.  I like the Ipad 
because it is pushing me further into the world we live in, of media and image, 
etc.  I am too scared to get a smart phone . . .
