Why buy books when you can use Kindle.  I don’t have one of these yet, but I plan to (when I get the $300 some odd dollars).  Paper books are, after all a waste.  A person generally buys a book, reads it once, and never touches it again (I for one neer feel like reading the same book again).  And what becomes of these books?  Well, there’s Used Books stores, that’s a good option.  Donation to libraries, sure.  But, there are people who just throw them out.  Trees got cut down to become nothing more than waste.  Also, the large amount of space needed to shelve books, just to collect dust.  Well no more.  Amazon released a little gem a while back, and with many positive reviews of it, I eventually thought of getting one myself.  Afterall, buying books in digital Kindle versions is also cheaper, and since there’s no delivering, no waiting.

Now, there’s gonna be an update.  Side buttons are gonna be smaller to minimize accidental page turning.  New navigation through a joystick rather than a scroll wheel.

A couple of weeks ago I got the Wacom Bamboo Fun tablet, since it’s a pain in the ass to use the touchpad on a laptop, and even though I have a mouse for it, that isn’t easiest to use.  It’s a pretty nifty little device.  I’m still trying to get the hang of it.  Even tried doing some pencil drawings in Coral Painter Essential 4 (comes with it, along with Photoshop Elements 5, the software alone is worth the price ($100).  Anyway, I uploaded the image for all to see.

Maybe I can get a few more done in time, work at it, maybe get good enough I can draw actual people (haha, for some reason I’m doubting this myself, but, that’s why I said “maybe”.)

Anyway, learn more about the Wacom Bamboo Fun Tablet from Amazon.com.
