Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

We can get men on the moon with the computing power of a calculator but can't have a dvr realize that The Colbert Report reairs a lot?

Mine already looks for shows across multiple channels and times. Actually I think this TimeWarner box doesn't. Comcast did though.

I'm fed up with iPad Calendar app not working right. What apps do folks use for calendar that isn't the Apple one? I have iCloud calendars and Exchange calendars that I need sync'd.

Agenda is my fave cal for the ipad.

But I use google calendar for all my calendar needs.

it has great potential. But says "by using the local IOS calendar app". So I sent a note to the developer asking, if I am having issues with sync with my local iOS app, will I have issues with your app too? We shall see! Thanks for the rec!

Anyone want to help me figure out which Kindle I want to get? I've finally decided that having something slightly larger than my iPhone, but smaller than the iPad (so I can put it in my purse and have all the books with me) is a necessity.

I don't care about multimedia capabilities, which is why I'm not looking at the Fire. But I don't know if I want the basic Kindle, or a Paperwhite.

Paperwhite! I got one and it is fantastic, it has great contrast in daylight, total darkness, and everything in-between.

I also love my paperwhite!

Our wings are not tired.

Yeah, I really want the Paperwhite. I love my regular Kindle but having to have proper light is a pain, especially when sharing a bed.

I am very tempted by my roommate's Paperwhite.

My problem is that lately I've been sending more and more of my purchased books to the iPad, not because I enjoy reading on it particularly (the Kindle is nicer on my eyes), but because the setup for looking at and choosing the books I have read/want to read/etc is easier and nicer. Ugh.

Art Crawl!!!

I have a Kindle Fire and I like having the light and being able to watch Netflix on it but it is heavy - so a Paperwhite would be better.
