If mental health reporters get it wrong as often as their tech reporters do, we'll be back to treating mental illness patients the same way we did in the 1800s again in no time.

@boneidol Maybe you just needed to have your first subscriber from here.

@bthall In the old days, latency issues were often caused by either the temperature (<60F) or by low battery charge. I had an electronic Bible in the late #1980s / early #1990s where those two things caused lots of lagging.

@bthall -- The argument that paid content is of better quality was all but chucked out the window.

The primary ones making that argument these days are newspaper / magazine companies. Today, there are better arguments for paying for interesting content one regularly accesses, such as rewarding the creator and avoiding the undesirable side effects of advertising-supported sites/media.

@bthall Additional pressure + microUSB connection usually means that something will get bent and stop working soon.

That's not the BN we used to know.😞

@bthall Really? Several years ago, I got a Nook Glow for one of the daughters-in-law. She never even created a BN account. She filled it with the ebooks she already had.

Maybe they've changed. That sounds eee-ville to me.
