Erin’s ebook reader/pda broke late last week, so I’ve been trying to find a replacement. I had a line on the exact same model on ebay, but some joker came in and doubled my bid in the last minute, to the point where it was ridiculous. I had used the proxy bidding thing though, and it worked out just fine. I was willing to spend a lot more than the bid was at, so it caused the guy to spend a lot more than he probably thought he’d have to.

So, now I’m looking at alternatives. I’ve currently got my eye on the Handspring Visor line - I know they’re old and stuff, but that’s half of what attracts me to them - long battery life, without all the bells and whistles. Plus, they’re expandable. Oh yeah, and they’re much easier to find - from stores as well as ebay.

I’ve had to do all of my research at lunch though, since the laptop is in the shop to get the backlight fixed.
