[Magdalen] My Kindle

[Sibyl Smirl]

When my Kindle died, I replaced it with a Paperwhite.  I miss the 
keyboard with my old one, I really dislike the touchscreen, which I 
never used before, but I'm adapting.  Another thing that I dislike is 
that the methods of arrangement of the books has changed.  Again, I'm 
adapting, with the occasional bitching.  Everything that I had came back 
to me from the cloud, though not without some fussing and fiddling: but 
I still have it.  I didn't want to spend extra money on the Fire, and 
seldom or never have any use for the color, plus I have a notion that 
the more features there are, the more things there are to go wrong.  I'm 
pretty okay with it now.
