For a yearly fee, you get a certain number of credits that can be used to purchase books. They are downloaded and automatically transfer to my itunes account.<br /><br />I'm not familiar with audio.com. I just typed it in, saw a notice for "exciting news coming soon" and was asked for my email. Strange because there was also an ad for audible.com on the page.JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-62997309020647473382010-08-17T20:48:25.663-04:002010-08-17T20:48:25.663-04:00That is very cool that Apple gave you a discount! ...That is very cool that Apple gave you a discount!

I'd say no rush on The Happiness Project. I'm betting you've got most of those things under control already.<br /><br />Laurel-Rain Snow - I have kind of a love-hate relationship with gadgets and technology... and I HATE instruction manuals! Don't know where I'd be without help from my daughters.<br /><br />Verity - The pink case was a little splurge, but I kept telling myself it was to protect it.<br /><br />Diane - It has been crazy this week, but I love it when everybody is home!<br /><br />Stephanie - I'm loving Henrietta Lacks. Who knew science could be riveting??<br /><br />EL Fay - The new ipod is great, but this one won't be going anywhere near the water!!<br /><br />Frances - Things are always crazy this time of year, but the new ipod sure helps. I finished Summer yesterday and love it... hope you get through all that laundry!!<br /><br />Nymeth - It's probably been 20 years since I read Ethan Frome, but I hope to pick up a copy today (or find the one that's around here somewhere). I loved Summer and, if I wasn't already committed to Bleak House, could easily start on an Edith Wharton binge!<br /><br />CB James - Wasn't The Mount beautiful?! It was summer when I visited, but it would be great to go back in the fall when the leaves are changing. I'm already dropping a few hints!JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-48442770414772116812010-08-15T20:21:28.865-04:002010-08-15T20:21:28.865-04:00I got to visit The Mount, Edith Wharton's home...I got to visit The Mount, Edith Wharton's home and estate this summer.

VCRs (remember those?) and then DVD players and finally DVRs.<br /><br />No e-book reader, no i-Pod, no i-Phone. Sad, huh?<br /><br />I do have a cell phone, and it's a touch phone, but not fancy. Not necessary for me, since I don't access the Internet from my phone. I could, but it feels weird to me.<br /><br />I guess my only advancement over my peers (people in my age group!) is that I do a lot of blogging! lol<br /><br />Enjoyed your salon...my eldest son lives in Germany.<br /><br />Here's my Salon:<br /><br />http://accidentalmoments.wordpress.com/2010/08/15/the-sunday-salon/<br /><br />Or click my name!Laurel-Rain Snowhttp://accidentalmoments.wordpress.com/2010/08/15/the-sunday-salon/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-45231117698918531072010-08-15T10:00:18.743-04:002010-08-15T10:00:18.743-04:00Nice looking Touch!
