...is that now I might have to scrap my plans to build one of those.
At the time of this writing, I have 293 titles on my Kindle, most of which are public domain ebooks downloaded from Project Gutenberg, Amazon’s free kindle book offerings and Manybooks.net.
My Kindle (and the very nice Brookstone Microbeam booklight you see in the picture) was a birthday gift from my ever awesome Sara.
I’ve had the Lenovo X61 Tablet for 11 days now, and been using it extensively in tablet mode for in class note-taking, meetings, etc. My unit is spec’d as follows:
Here are my initial impressions:
I’ve been lusting after one of those since it was announced back in May. This is the successor to an already great tablet, the X60. I received it a few days ago and instantly transfered all my data and apps from the Fujitsu P1510 for a semester of intense use. In a few days I will be posting first impressions and later extended review (in the context of my usage pattern as a graduate student).
The least favorite part of my workout routine is running. I used to be a good runner back in my handball days, but when I went to college I neglected long-distance running in favor of more training for strength and speed. My aerobic fitness dropped to what I though was an acceptable level until I was jerked back into reality by way of getting my ass kicked by a certain 56-year old runner in a short run in Alexandria back in March 2006. Anyway, that’s another story altogether (that will not be told- by me anyway- in the interest of keeping such embarrassment under wraps).
