TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

Why does Gutenberg have to name files by numbers,
annoying to have to rename them one by one
Look, asshole:  Your 'incomprehensible' act, your word-salad, your pinealism...It BORES ME.  I've been incomprehensible for so long, I TEACH IT TO MBA CANDIDATES.  So if you simply MUST talk about your pineal gland or happy children dancing in the wildflowers, go talk to Roger, because he digs that kind of shit

How'd you manage that?

I'm impressed with the battery time.  Been using mine exactly a week, and only today I've noticed the bar dip down today.

Did you get a cover?  I haven't dropped mine anywhere near that far, but it does seem to add the durability of it somewhat.

Also, if like me, you have a ton of PDF files, Calibre e-book management's file conversion system (from PDF to .mobi) is awesome.  It's very readable, and while I've noticed a couple of minor flaws in breaks for paragraphing, they may be to do with the source file more than the conversion process.

I thought Amazon finally added PDF support?  Was this wrong, or does it just not work very well?

No, there is PDF support it just....well, it varies on the quality of the PDF.  The main problem is that, unlike with .mobi files where you increase the size of the letters, and the formatting stays the same, the only way to increase the size of the PDF is with a zoom function.  You can either do fit to page, which is usually too small for easy reading (though still possible with most standard ebooks) or you can zoom 150%, 200% or 300%, all of which involve having to scroll sideways across the screen constantly to read to the end of the sentence and is utterly terrible and jarring as a consequence.
