Re: iPad and Woodworking?

I read books and pdfs on a Kindle 2.

I browse FWW on an HP mini notebook. It is pretty small and very portable. It also cost $379. I use a verizon USB antenna and thier wireless service to connect to the internet for all at home use.

The Kindle battery life far exceeds the iPad (reported to be 8 to 10 hours) or my notebook. With wispernet turned off the Kindle holds a charge for around two weeks of reading an hour or more a day.

The iPad is interesting, but my HP mini works pretty well and its paid for. For reading books, the Kindle is really hard to beat.

Re: UPDATED: Giveaway and Poll: The Most Requested Woodworking Gifts of 2009

A new Unisaw with a riving knife would be a nice addition to the shop.
