    1. @hfaust For me it means nap and then videogames with gf until super late.

      1. @nerthos Supposedly, Friday is night for reading new books, but I've been short of money so no new books this month.

        2. @hfaust Lately I just download them for my father's reader thing. Books are expensive.

                  1. @nerthos I can't find a nice one within the 60-70 Euro range actually... Well I did find http://www.marktplaats.nl/a/computers-en-software/e-readers/m1031728024-pocketbook-ereader.html?c=8c285449651fa109c354bbabe740c1b which is 2nd-hand and I might get it for 30 Euro ( I have to bid for it )

                    1. @critialcloudkicker I'm using a papyre 6.1, in case you're interested. Used ones might be worth it, but check with the seller first. Sometimes they don't even have any use. One of the two I have my father bought from someone who had won it on some bank promotion and had no use for it.

                      1. @nerthos So it turns out my brother has one, he threw it in a corner when it crashes like 2-3 months ago. I think I just fixed it. It has an MMC cardreader though. So in order to find out what an Irex actually takes ( note that the company who made those devices went bankrupt in June 2010 ) I need to find an USB>MMC adapter or something, Unless if you think that I can put a good book on the 16 MB internal memory :+ . Anyway, I can get my hands on experience before I go buy a "current age" one that does not take 100 seconds to boot, or a full second to turn a page. I think I might read the Harry Potter books in English first, seen as it is already on there.

                        1. @critialcloudkicker Sounds good enough. Mine takes a little bit to change pages depending on the book, but I'm used to it so I just press next page before finishing the current one
