First I got a Kindle - 3 1/2 years ago and I still use it a lot. Then I got a Droid phone which I recently replaced with an iphone. Last year I got a Nook color and put a wee card in it with android. I use them all and wouldn't be without. The iphone has internet no matter where I am and serves as a GPS as well. I download books from the public library - from my home - on both the Kindle and the Nook tablet. My laptop mostly gathers dust in the sewing room - I use it for embroidery designs more than anything else. I also have a blue tooth keyboard I can use with the tablet which uses wi-fi. Can you tell I am a computer nerd??
