It is morning, August, may it be a good one.

 JP>> Still pondering on the idea. My daughter is also thinking of
 JP>> getting a Thrive.

	Change in plans here. My daughter would like an update to her e-reader by
going to the Amazon new machine. She has been on the Kindle for > a year
and would love the Fire.

 AA> Any more thoughts on the Thrive? There was a bit of a media fury over
 AA> the announcement of the Kindle Fire last week. It sounds like a nice
 AA> compromise of e-reader/tablet.

 AA> a Kindle Fire with features that are much similar as
 AA> the others won't challenge the Apple iPad's leadership.

 AA> "Apple iPad currently has 90 percent of the market but we see it going
 AA> down to 60 percent by 2012 but it will still continue to grow bigger as
 AA> the market will also grow so much," Munster said.

	I am not going to participate in this increase, well, not at the moment.
Other things to do like getting my chain-saw going, I have a short cord of
