Spend more money, get an iPad with Kindle app

I read Wuthering Heights on the Kindle, the iPad, and the hard cover book, at the same time. I expected the Kindle to be better than the iPad - it is lighter and 'should be' better. But after hours of reading, on all 3 formats, the annoying features of the Kindle kill that experience: there's a reason it costs $75: uncomfortable to hold, annoying flashing screen with every page turn, annoying highlight feature, multiple clicks to change brightness, multiple clicks to change books, and the so called "paperwhite" is in fact a dull fuzzy grey white, even though the resolution is the same as an iPad. Compare a Kindle screen to an iPad and the Kindle looks like a dinosaur. Use the iPad Kindle app before making a decision. Kindle is great software but Kindle hardware is not.

Great sci fi, well paced, performances excellent

Excellent story. Reeves may be "The One" but he gets a lot of support from Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss, Pantoliano, and particularly Hugo Weaving as Agent Smith. Must have movie.

wahlberg and banks are honest and excellent

Great story, the real one and the movie, and Wahlberg keeps it honest (and takes some big hits in doing that!) Banks is refreshing against the all guy back drop.

When young Lili is forced to give up her beloved dog Hagen, deemed unfit by The State, she and the dog begin a dangerous journey back towards each other. The one-time house pet has learned much, not all good, in his journey through the streets and animal control centers, as he leads a pack unfit dogs to bite the hands that beats them.

Yeah, I asked where may I connect an iPod. Justin answered, "It has Bluetooth". Well, I don't, just an iPod, 7th Generation, 256 GB. So does anyone know where I may attach this iPod?? Cheers and many thanks,
plug it in to the Media Channel, RCA connectors.
I use a switch box, too, so i plug the computers, the ipod, the ipad to the switch box and the switch box to the Media Channel, so I can switch between sources from my desk.
Not sure how the Denon handles any enhancement from stereo IN to 5.1 out. Sounds great though, really happy with the Denon.
