    Yes.  I hear you.  I use mine a lot too.

I can still read but not save place and I'll end up doing something as NLS's 
machine is just not portable.

Right now I'm just focused on getting the gifts wrapped.

I will tell you, one I plugged the wrong charger into it, the 2nd
went into the toilet, accidently.  The third had to be replaced
because the earphone jack was bad, and since it is directly attached
to the motherboard, it necessitated replacement.  I think I had it a
couple years.  I use my Streams a lot, because of long commute etc.,
probably 5 or 6 hours a day, every day, so I put a lot of wear and
tear on them.
