I do try to bring it out now and again when he's around as I haven't the heart to tell him that it would never have been top of my 'to own' list.Jennytchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13621488409334115930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855484342758356579.post-5400489933359072992009-09-13T11:11:41.139+01:002009-09-13T11:11:41.139+01:00I only got my mobile phone two days before my firs...I only got my mobile phone two days before my first baby was born in 2005. It has proved invaluable when trying to organise a family made up of a hard-working husband who's on travel a lot of the time and two small children.<br />Like you, Tony, I cannot imagine ever getting a Kindle and reading e-books. On the other hand, I took out a subscription for audiobooks when I had my second baby and spent hours walking down country lanes, pushing the pram.<br />I wonder how big the leap from audiobook to e-book is? ;-)Another Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00338023606989069735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855484342758356579.post-4167894934938128522009-09-13T03:32:13.844+01:002009-09-13T03:32:13.844+01:00There is nothing better than curling up with a boo...There is nothing better than curling up with a book, the smell of the paper, the turning of the pages. There is no way any machine will replace that for me.Sara xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08060884332479801540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855484342758356579.post-76673792581552147252009-09-10T05:14:18.141+01:002009-09-10T05:14:18.141+01:00I have to admit I've been intrigued by the she...I have to admit I've been intrigued by the shear enthusiam with which people speak of the Kindle. But I really like my books. I like turning the page. I like the feel of the book in my hand. I also admit that much of my "reading" these days is done by audio on my commute but I still always have a real live book with pages and binding at my bedside table. :-) <br /><br />Right now I'm "reading" 3 books at the same time. One on my ipod that I started while mowing this weekend, Another on cd that I'm "reading" to and from work and another real book for bedtime.Smart Mouth Broadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12157189992200894945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855484342758356579.post-78561634996006124722009-09-09T22:06:02.479+01:002009-09-09T22:06:02.479+01:00I held off for a long time on the mobile phone mys...I held off for a long time on the mobile phone myself.

We'll see - I have spent a lot of my adult life getting dusty in historical archives, I love the romanticism of it all. And I couldn't curl up in bed with an ebook.
