Terry,

The speakers were sold some time ago.

Hello, I saw your post about having some planars. Do you still have them, if so what? Thanks, Terry

Glad to meet you, Kathy! I’ll send an email reply also, but it’s great to make another genealogy connection!

Your blog about your genealogical year came up tonight (Sept 23) as I googled George Southwick, hoping to find more about my husband’s ancestor and why Hepsibah was listed in the AGBI (which I haven’t had direct access to yet). I very much enjoy the stories which come from the dry data and the interconnections we can sometimes find between ourselves and real history! If you need Maine help, I live there and have access to a good genealogical library or two– the account listed is my genie email account.

I have several Magnaplanar speakers I purchased in the mid 1980′s located in the Phoenix area. I am looking to sell them. I have a total of 8 panels. If interested, drop me a line.

CES has come and gone and there was nothing there to dissuade me from choosing a nook as the best compromise. I was keenly interested in the Plastic Logic Que, but not at $650 for a device in a space that is changing so rapidly.

Sony’s Daily Edition, the PRS-900 also is interesting except that I doubt I’d ever buy a book at Sony’s store given the cost difference compared to other stores. That makes the wireless connectivity useless to me and in effect making a pretty big markup compared the the PRS-600 for an inch taller screen.

On paper, the Irex DR800SG sounds great but it still has no release date and reports from CES weren’t encouraging.

So, looks like I’ll continue to wait for a nook unless Apple manages to do something later this month with their tablet that blows me away. Even if they do, it likely won’t have the great battery life of an E-Ink screen.

Hopefully B&N’s next nook update will fix the worst of the issues people are reporting.

Yes, but it’s a hassle. It would be easier to write a program from scratch.

I got a chance to play with a nook yesterday. It had been updated to the just released v1.1 firmware. While some operations were pretty sluggish (opening a book for the first time), page turns were not horribly slow.

Assuming they continue to optimize the not quite ready for prime time software, it should be a good ereader platform.
