Amazon's Kindle DX: Hands-On Review

...my opinion of Kindle can be summed up as simply adoration!...I had a gazillion PDF's stored on my computers!...99% I have little more than glanced at because reading them on a computer was inconvenient or physically disagreeable (five minutes reading something on a monitor is the most I can handle)...Kindle 2 was okay but you had to convert PDF's to "prc" files before loading them...DX, on the other hand, does the conversion itself...and so far, overall, it works BEAUTIFULLY!!!...granted it's not perfect -- e.g. you can't annotate or highlight PDF's...another AMAZING thing I discovered was that you can download non-English books, convert them to PDF's, and the DX will TRANSLATE them into English for you!...I would have liked a little stronger contrast with a paler background but reading is still very comfortable....I think the kindle, ultimately, will turn out to be a revolutionary device...imagine never having to go to the libary because you simply carry around the library with you!...no more late fees!!

Waiting for Signal to Add Equity Exposure

...yeah, this guy shares his "EPIC" insights here on seekingalpha but does he put his money where his mouth is?...not according to his covestor portfolio:

...another one of these "do what I say, not what I do" characters wanting to sell you their "insights"..."epic" indeed -- what a joke!

An Ill Wind Indeed

...I'm just trying to help the guy out...I mean, real estate agents are having a hard time of it right now and I'm just trying to help him out with a little free advertising:

centraltexasvalue.com/...

...nothing wrong with that is there?...I mean, goodness knows, I guess modesty prevents him from mentioning his listing in his profile or on his blog...and then there's that novel of his that Im trying to help promote by quoting a few of the more -- uh, "comment se disez?" -- savory passages?...and on top of that, I'm helping him by pointing out some of the typos his editor apparently overlooked...for free, no less!...I simply don't understand why I'm not feeling any love here...
