What daily newspaper to get (KINDLE edition)

Yeah. the FT is a very short read articlewise. hmm.

 

wall street journal and if they have it sporting news

 

subscribed to WSJ. I like it a lot better than the FT. probably going to cancel the FT (I'll give it a week). Articles are more in depth and varied across the spectrum.

 

what kind of cases you guys using?

saw this one, interesting. makes the kindle much larger...might just get the amazon branded leather one (w/o the book light, kind of uncessary IMO).

 

it might be just me but i think cases suck on pretty much any electronic device. whats the use of having an ultra thin device if you are just going to bulk it up with a case? might as well just carry around a book!

my buddy has a nice droid, and he has some huge case for it, totally defeats the purpose, cant even fit it into his pocket.

 

I broke my screen on my first gen kindle. Not really gentle with electronics. A hard sleeve would be better prob

X

 

yeah thats the risk, but i just prefer to take that risk i guess, never had a case for my iphones, or even a screen protector for that matter

 

i don't for my phone. i throw my kindle into my briefcase its going to get fucked up.

 

fuck this is pretty awesome.

You need a Hello Kitty cover.

 

leaning towards the DODO Case.

 

what might be cool is something water resistant in case you are reading outside and it starts raining? i guess in la not that big of a deal...

 

pretty sweet, the FT comes at night. Can read it before bed..then another one in the AM.

 

The Kindle actually fits in my front jeans pocket (my jeans have large pockets) which is really cool. Case could fuck that up.


BTW, I am subsribing to the LA Times + WSJ when its all said and done. We do have the print edition at work but I usually don't read it there....in coffee shops is good. The FT was really good but it was business overload with that an the WSJ.

I fucking love this device. Probably not going to get a tablet we'll see. This thing is so portable and does one thing really well instead of an unlimited number of things "OK".

 

The ePub format allows you to get library books. That's a pretty nice feature.
