[Rhodes22-list] Kindle versus Sony Touch Reader, Experience?

[Michael D. Weisner]

I thought that we were talking about using the Kindle on the boat instead of 
bringing a bunch of books!  Using your definition of sailboating stuff we 
couldn't talk about a gps based navigation system, our experiences with 
solar energy systems, or the proper head configuration.

Get real BigAl these are sailing related topics.

Oh, yes, have a happy holiday (not sailing related up north.)
