One Device to Rule Them All
One Device Should Be All I Need
I’ve written at times about my technology dream – that I could have one device that would perform all of my needed functions. Depending on the design of the device, it would need certain attachments.

Kindle Fire Should Have a Different Name
I’m a fan of what Amazon does, not because of any particular reason… actually, I don’t even know why. I buy some stuff through there for work, but not terribly often.
