Kindle Wireless Reading Device (6" Display, Global Wireless, Latest Generation)
$259.00
My new Kindle is excellent!
I am impressed by the ease and speed of buying books and subscriptions via whispernet and by the ease of getting my own books/documents into the device (via e-mail).
For the non-native speaker the ease of use of the New Oxford American Dictionary is important. In addition I have bought the French-English Merriam-Webster which can be used in the same way (after changing the default dictionary) for reading French books.
It would be nice if Die Zeit magazine were available for subscription.
The Kindle keyboard (small grey in white), while esthetically very pleasing, is difficult to use for the elderly.

Microsoft OneNote Home and Student 2007
$64.95
I am using this while attending college. It has bee a great program to group all you notes into one program. The real nice feature is that you can print files to OneNote and then you can use those as your notes and fill them up just as you would printing them on paper and writing on them in class.

This program makes me carry one less Item to class. I have no need for a notebook for every class. The only thing that I wish it would have was the updated look of all the other Microsoft office programs. this still looks like the 2003 office suite. but if you are used to the older office suite then it will be really easy to navigate. I just have to get used to it.

Home Diagnostics TrueTrack Test Strips, 100 Count
$49.99
It worked out perfectly, packaging was somewhat generic but I didn't expect anything else really. The product inside was just what it should have been.

Half-Fiction
$13.98
This is an excellent discount album. The production is wonderful, Alison's vocals are clear and biting, and the rest of the band rocks. They were an excellent rock band and their live shows were one of the best I've ever seen. The title track is an upbeat and electifying hit, and this buzzing energy continues throughout the CD. My favorite track is "Toxic Home". It is a beautiful rock song with excellent emotional lyrics. It's a shame they weren't given the response they deserved (i.e. been more famous), especially since there are so few good rock bands out there and rock bands with female lead singers are rare.
