This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Greetings:

"Does anybody here have a Kindle?"

Heavens, no. Ugly, lousy design, stupid design and way overpriced for a "unitasker".

I've been reading eBooks on various PalmOS devices (and before that, Apple's Newton) for years and
years. Amazon got it amazingly wrong.
