    Whatever that is, you can bet Sean will have one for his birthday.

    Oh dear oh dear me, a Kobo is an E reader, it's the competition to the Kindle in the UK.
    Hope this explains things a little better for you guys

    So, you clowns thought the Kindle is a joke, well get this. When I type the word 'crap' on it here, the stupid auto-correct function changes it to Carl, I kid you not. It also changes other words I need to keep track of.

    I'm going to type; 'What a stinky pile of crap!' on the Kindle, without changing anything. Check it..

    What a stinking pile of Carl.

    I may start liking this thing even more now.

    Auto-correct?
    Does it help you match your eye shade to your outfit?

    No, silly. I thought you were more tech savvy than this.

    --AutoCorrect is a function commonly found in word processors such as Microsoft Word and text editing interfaces for Apple Inc. products including the iPod, iPhone and the iPad. It is similar to but not the same as autocompletion. Its principal purpose is as part of the spell checker to correct common spelling or typing errors, saving time for the user. It is also used to automatically format text or insert special characters by recognising particular character usage, saving the user from having to use more tedious functions.

    Why would a gal want an app like that?
    Maybe the real dumb ones that can't spell or think for themselves.:eek:

    You really know nothing of current technology, do you? I'm sort of surprised, but realize you do sort of live in the past. This thing is standard on most phones, tablets, etc., nobody asks for them.

    Oh, you've run that 'gal' joke into the ground, just so you know. I remembered how you have trouble seeing when things have run their course, like that gerbil deal.

    There is a lot of technology I don't want, so I don't have it.
    I would delete that crap, but you seem to like it, so carry on.

    What is the gerbil connection? I didn't realize the kindle was popular among the gerbil crowd, but it kind of makes sense.
