If that happens, reading as a leisure activity will likely be a rather low priority.

Great observation.

I have no interest in squinting at some tiny screen, either. The OldPossum's just low-tech.

When you turn off the whispernet to the Kindle, the battery can last for several weeks or more. You can also buy a solar charger for it that costs about $25.
