Kindle drawbacks?

Side effects? Do Kindles have side effects?

The mind boggles....

I buy The Oldie so presumably I am well over the hill. To be honest, A friend saw the cover and exclaimed "How patronising!" but I have found it the least patronising of magazines. The contributors are mostly older than I am, so they don't dare be patronising. Katherine Whitehorn? Wilfrid De'Ath? Bernard Ingram?

Oh heck, try a free sample and judge for yourself - don't criticise what you have not read!

Anyway back to Kindles, I love mine and would not part with it, but I find its too easy to spend just with one click dangerous!!!!!

I have not read The Oldie so maybe should not be critical, but I feel think the name would put me off.

One problem that I have sometimes with a Kindle is that if I forget just who a certain character is, it is not very easy to skip back through to find a previous reference to him/her. Yes, I know that I can use the search facility but a book can be easier to flick back a few pages.
Generally I'm delighted with my Kindle, just wish some of the books were more reasonably priced

I will definitely buy the Oldie.
When I'm old.
I don't think that will be any time soon.

They do Elegran. They want us to buy the Oldie.

And your blog.

So all this is just to advertise The Oldie mag?!

Webster - you've got a point there!

I know Elegran! just thought we could give 'em a hard time to start with

No drawbacks. I usually take twelve books on a seven day holiday - and have to dress like a slob because there's no room for clothes. Not any more! I love my Kindle.

Jings don't panic. This is legalised advertising (and no-one wants you to buy anything)

One drawback is the ease with which you can buy up everything on Amazon. At least if you are tempted in a bookshop you have to carry a heavy bag back home.

But this is the Oldie section isn't it? Isn't the whole section advertising? If I've got it wrong I apologise.

"I write the Superbyw@ys column in The Oldie"

Advertising!

ELEGRAN !!!!!!!
