Since you are an Apple enthusiast (as am I) you might want to give serious consideration to getting an iPhone.
You can sync it with iTunes on your computer and there are numerous apps available for free which enable you to download books and listen to them on your iPhone.
This makes everything so much easier than just a generic MP 3 player.
Anything you can do on a Kindle can be done just as easily on your iPhone. There is a Kindle app available and I believe it’s free.
In addition to that, you also have a built in GPS system while stand alone units cost up to several hundred dollars alone.
That’s what convinced me to get the iPhone. With the ATT subsidy for a 2 year contract, it will only cost you $200 for the phone instead of 500–600.
It’s also tremendously intuitive to use. I couldn’t believe how easy it was even for the GPS mapping. Pretty amazing.
You’d be amazed at how many times that has come in handy and gotten me places much quicker or gotten me home when lost.
The other advantage of listening to books on the iPhone is it’s always with you and no need to carry an extra device, just a set of headphones.
Why not stop by an Apple store and investigate it more fully.
I’ve had mine for a little over a year and am totally delighted.
For close to the price of a Kindle, you can get the iPhone. A book reader, phone, and Gps unit all in one device at a fraction of the price.
My guess is you’d be delighted with it. Plus, you’ll always have as many pics of Milo always with you as you want.
Plus, the iPhone also has a camera built in so you can take more pics in all those candid moments when he does something adorable and you don’t have time to go get a camera. Just reach in your pocket for your iPhone.
Seriously, get down to an Apple store and check it out :)
