Case in point. For every new gadget that comes out on the market, I am eager to run out and buy it. When those mini-netbooks came out for $300 at Walmart by Acer, I bought 2. One for my husband and one for me.
Those mini-netbooks were a wise choice, they have built in video, flash, usb's and run full operating systems like Windows Vista.
They are neat and petite.
Now, when the Kindle came out, I was tempted to buy one. I talked to my husband and realized, that I like to read books, not a screen. When the iPad came out, I was wanting one desperately, I listened to my husband tell me about the fact, there is no camera, no USB outlets and no Flash.
So, I passed on that.
The thing he did buy me, that I am thankful for, however, is my Nexus One Google phone.
That is the best thing ever!
I can do nearly everything a netbook or PC can do on it and it is tiny and portable.
So, find a wise man or woman to help keep you on track.
You will be richer, happier and more pleased than ever.
As for watching video on a small computer-sized screen. No thanks, I'll pass. Just like I love marking up real books in my hot little hands, I love watching a big TV in bed or Imax movie screen in the movie theatre.
Have a frugal and productive day,
