Yes, you are correct. everynametaken Send a noteboard - 02/07/2011 03:34:34 AM
everynametaken did not ask "Should I get an eReader?" He asked a specific question relating to choosing between two eReaders. How would it sound if you asked some random photography-related question and someone flipped back "Neither, you should go back to DRAWING!!"? It's irrelevant to the question that was asked and is, effectively, giving the middle finger to the original question.

That being said, everynametaken is over-reacting.


That was why I said it. He had no business coming in and relaying his snotty attitude in such an unrelated way to the question that was asked. That was why I called him and the other person out. Overreacting? Maybe, I was probably a little grouchy when I wrote it but at least i didn't tell him to fuck off. ;)

Kindle. callandor1000 - 23/06/2011 06:29:52 AM 833 Views

Nook Color MightyYT - 23/06/2011 07:06:35 AM 973 Views
Nook e-ink touchscreen. Doesn't have the idiocy of the Amazon DRM, and it's conveniently shaped. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 07:27:20 AM 435 Views
I am very interested in this one random thoughts - 23/06/2011 02:02:44 PM 890 Views
I used the one at Barnes and Noble, yeah. Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 04:32:19 PM 839 Views
It's awesome. I rarely use the physical buttons. Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:35:36 PM 794 Views

Yeah, but the Amazon ebooks themselves have terrible DRM. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 04:33:56 PM 432 Views
but is the advantage of the Kindle? random thoughts - 23/06/2011 04:33:58 PM 838 Views

color e-ink would be awesome LadyLorraine - 23/06/2011 01:10:32 PM 780 Views
I would guess mechanics random thoughts - 23/06/2011 01:56:11 PM 859 Views
They have color e-ink, it is just expensive Roland00 - 23/06/2011 02:29:45 PM 968 Views
Yeah, it's depressing. beetnemesis - 23/06/2011 03:36:02 PM 769 Views

Paper, because there are some things that outweigh convenience. *NM* Macharius - 23/06/2011 03:55:06 PM 425 Views
Like nostalgic adherence to needlessly outdated media! Mmm... papyrus scrolls. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/06/2011 04:37:08 PM 411 Views
Nostalgia has nothing to do with it. Macharius - 23/06/2011 05:48:27 PM 887 Views
+1 *NM* Yunalesca - 23/06/2011 06:19:34 PM 412 Views
there are advantages to the ebook format as well LadyLorraine - 24/06/2011 11:05:41 AM 921 Views
Oh, definitely. Macharius - 24/06/2011 03:02:51 PM 919 Views
You did say you knew they were convienent LadyLorraine - 25/06/2011 02:21:18 AM 982 Views
What a snobby and pretentious comment. Thank you for contributing nothing to the conversation. *NM* everynametaken - 24/06/2011 07:50:55 AM 416 Views
This, coming from someone who posts primarily to antagonize the member Republicans? *NM* Macharius - 24/06/2011 02:17:12 PM 419 Views
Conspiracy much? I hardly do that. *NM* everynametaken - 26/06/2011 06:29:28 AM 417 Views
Actually, his comment makes sense. Amyrlin - 29/06/2011 07:26:29 PM 840 Views
I'm sorry, but it does not make sense. LadyLorraine - 30/06/2011 02:02:14 AM 815 Views
Yes, you are correct. everynametaken - 02/07/2011 03:34:34 AM 897 Views
Not at all. *NM* everynametaken - 02/07/2011 03:30:15 AM 416 Views

I don't think it's accurate to say real books will never be obsolete. Ghavrel - 25/06/2011 03:01:16 AM 727 Views
Why did you even respond in this post? You contributed nothing to the conversation. *NM* everynametaken - 24/06/2011 07:53:00 AM 359 Views
Doesn't the same go for your replies to her and Macharius as well? snoopcester - 24/06/2011 11:46:43 AM 813 Views
it's a never ending cycle of irrelevancy O.O LadyLorraine - 24/06/2011 11:53:54 AM 721 Views
Re: Doesn't the same go for your replies to her and Macharius as well? TaskmasterJack - 25/06/2011 01:51:04 AM 769 Views
because i like to remind people that e-books are bollocks? *NM* Yunalesca - 24/06/2011 04:11:07 PM 391 Views
what are your experiences that make you think so? *NM* LadyLorraine - 25/06/2011 02:27:23 AM 395 Views
My goodness... Amyrlin - 29/06/2011 07:29:19 PM 875 Views

I used to be like that... Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:33:04 PM 902 Views
Have you used an ereader for an extended period of time? *NM* Ghavrel - 25/06/2011 03:01:47 AM 384 Views
no, and i don't want too either Yunalesca - 25/06/2011 11:56:12 AM 748 Views

It is. They literally fixed EVERYTHING I had issues with in the 1st one. Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:13:52 PM 722 Views
I chose Nook. everynametaken - 24/06/2011 07:41:11 AM 1044 Views
Amazon locking you into their format was one of the things that pushed me to the NOOK *NM* Wulf`gar - 24/06/2011 04:30:23 PM 396 Views
Probably a good call- Borders has been circling the drain for a while *NM* beetnemesis - 29/06/2011 01:09:37 PM 389 Views
