Amazon has never done that, though. They're actually quite honest about their devices' memory capacities. My K3 has 4GB of memory and Amazon says up front that 3GB of that is available to users with no limits on how they use that memory.

Ugh, I just don't like having to mess with a device's OS too much. It's just not my thing. The most I've ever cared to do is dual boot W7 and OSX on my MBP and hack my K3 to let me run my own screensavers. I just don't have the patience or necessity to root devices. I suppose if the Nook ever updated in a way…

Well with my Kindle I like having all my books there. I'm the type of person that rereads things a lot, so it's nice to know that if I spontaneously feel like reading something, it's there. And regarding the Fire, at school and at home I have reliable wifi, and those are the places that I do most of my media…

I love chocolate, but I also adore sour candy. I'll destroy my tongue chewing Tear Jerker gum and eating Warheads. Really that's the only candy that I care for nowadays- really luxe chocolate and really sour things.

Ah, I remember the days of my 250MB mp3 player. 8GB seemed like an ungodly amount of space at the time.

I don't see the lack of microSD on the Kindle Fire as an issue. It's a wifi device and offers 5GB of storage in the cloud for non-Amazon content and unlimited storage for Amazon content. So that's about 11GB available for non-Amazon content and unlimited storage for whatever you buy from Amazon. That's a pretty good…

I'm not surprised. It's the same way with the Nook Simple Touch. I was tempted to upgrade from my Kindle 3 to one of those, until I learned from someone here (and verified it via the fine print on the B&N selling page) that of the 2GB memory B&N advertises, only 1GB is available for content and only 250mb of that is…

I FUCKING LOVE TAMORA PIERCE.

My dad is a professional Santa Claus. I think you just traumatized me.

I'm a virgin at 21 because of masturbation. Why have sex with someone I don't really know or am just not that into (I've yet to have a boyfriend that I'm super crazy about) when I can satisfy myself? I mean, I'd really like to lose the V-card, but I don't feel the need to have sex with a guy unless I'm genuinely…

Ok, if it is actually her writing these posts, then...

He does most of his work for kink.com, a BDSM site. The trunk thing is totally safe.

It explains why I love Queer as Folk. Brian Kinney... hnnnnnnngggggg. *unf*

May I direct your attention to Kink.com, the site that James Deen frequents? If BDSM is your thing, that site fit the bill pretty well. True, most of their guys aren't that attractive and there's still the plastic porn stars, but they still have plenty of scenes with James here and women that actually look like real…

My best friend and I (both us being 21 year old college students) had a long, pretty explicit conversation about the porn we enjoy and James Deen definitely came up quite a bit (oh my, that sentence was more of an innuendo than I had intended...).

I love that site.

They're totally worth it to me, though. The official Amazon cover was like $40, so why not spend a little more on a cover that is beautiful, unique, and that you could resell later for almost full price if you switch hardware? Seriously, on KindleBoards, there's a huge Oberon following that has no problem paying $60…

It does, however, convert pdfs to mobi wonderfully, making pdfs much more readable on the small screen.

You forgot Oberon Design. They have a huge following on Kindle forums and for good reason- their covers are gorgeous.

Eww, thanks for the info! I was thinking of getting a Nook ST, since I want side page turn buttons on my ereaders, but now that is definitely not going to happen. Almost all my ebooks come from sources where I can acquire them without DRM- I rarely ever actually buy from the Amazon store on my Kindle. Knowing about…
