Some of us weren’t aware that such a thing as a record/cassette/CD player/writer even existed. Well, we were sure it could, and did, but we just did not know this for a fact, nor had independent confirmation, like we do now.

And the best part is that if we just took a couple of years sabbatical and had our own research team working around the clock, we still probably couldn’t figure out a better present for either one of our parents than this right here.

And we could probably say the same thing about that e-book Reader, though in our experience and no doubt yours as well, E-ink beats LCD every time when it comes to eyestrain, and color is pretty much overrated when it comes to anything but comics and magazines, which you most likely can’t read on this anyway. It does have one thing going for it, though, the eternal champion of consumer electronics compromise, the price. And that’s usually more than enough.
