If you've never experienced a high definition television with a HD signal, these pics are as close to HD that I can think of ... only it would be motion and...
... I must have stared at them for at least 20 minutes ... in one of them you can see the shadows the clouds are casting on the ocean really well. I wonder...
Hi Guys, Are the group members from California (Mike and Keith - any others?) anywhere near the current bush fires. I hope not, but all the best if you are. ...
I can see them with the naked eye just by looking out my front door. I had to make a trip to palm springs today and I had to take "the back way" and say off...
... I am in the middle of them, but not at the moment very close to any particular fire. The skies and the wind have been interesting -- and we need to shovel...
Keith ... I saw this on that page, "and I've now got answers to the eye problem I've been having." ... will you elaborate on this a litte? Are you ok? Mike ......
No not at all. They are about 30 miles from me and they would literally have to burn through at least a few thousand homes before reaching mine. Last night...
Just an update. The air quality up here in the high desert has gotten bad enough where the air quality management district has requested that all school...
... chemistry labs and O2 used for medical breathing equipment? The cylinders used for industrial oxygen may have previously been contaminated with other...

... See reviews (lots and lots) and blogs (lots and lots). For me the Kindle misses the mark. It looks like a prototype that they couldn't be bothered styling...
Ian, Where can I find a concise list of available content for the reader? I'm trying to see if anyone is posting technical books for these things. Mike...
That baby is a $700 device ... but you can read and write to it ... I wonder if I should just consider a tablet PC. Any idea about the readability screen...
... Yes. The Iliad (or other eInk devices) have screens that won't strain your eyes. They are like paper. No backlight. Don't draw power when not being...
It seems like I could replace my notebook with this device and carry technical books with me when I'm on jobs ... but a tool like Microsoft Office Notes seems ...
... Screen is the same size as the Sony Reader. Not suitable for A4 or Letter sized PDF. Plus the Sony is cheaper in the USA. If you are near a Borders or a...
I thought you said the Sony won't do PDF? I think Iliad is going to be the most versitile for what I need. I found a ton of free technical books online in PDF...
