Um, yes. I don't know why 3G would even be necessary. I buy all my books attached to home wifi.
D mentioned this to me last night, with a wistful "I guess we don't need anymore gadgets, huh?" I reluctantly agreed with him, but we don't!
Want, yes...
There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Airports, beaches.

Hey. New board.
Walking down the street to coffee shops. Coffee shops without free wireless. In bookstores. In hotel rooms without free wifi. At houses of old relatives without wifi. In cars (as a passenger of course).
I think the 3G is definitely worth a one-time $50 investment. Not so much the monthly iPad costs (I would go wifi only there) but $50 once is cheap.

I guess I just don't get out that much to places where there isn't wifi. For a trip, I preload books onto the touch, and all my friends, if I am babysitting or something, have the Wifi.
My mom and dad do, too, so I'm pretty set.

Airports without free wifi, when you run out of books to read!! If it were a monthly cost, yeah, I could see it, but as a one time thing...seems worth it to me.

Just gotta take a moment to thank Erin and dcp again for helping me through my Skype orientation last Thursday. Except for quite oddly having disconnect my schmancy microphone, to be heard, my Skype therapy session this evening went off beautifully.
Tanx!

So, for those of yu who do a lot of work in photoshop/illustrator...
Is there some sort of better mouse that you use that allows more detailed moves?
I have been having a heck of a time with my work issue Dell mouse "lassoing" things and such, and I am wondering if it is my manual dexterity, or perhaps the mouse. I feel like I could do better with a stylus type thing of some sort, but I do not think work would pay for that.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Most professionals use a Wacom tablet rather than a mouse.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I second Tom. Get a Wacom tablet of some sort.
