Sean has been looking at buying an e-reader for some time. He didn't want a full sized tablet, but the e-reader facility on his phone was a pain as the screen is so small that he is lucky to display 1 paragraph at a time on it. He liked the idea of the Amazon Kindle Fire (as it had more 'bells and whistles' than a plain kindle) but they have not been released in Aus.
A few weeks ago, I got an email from spreets.com.au advertising an "Android 2.3 Tablet with 7-Inch Touch Screen, Wi-Fi, & 3G Capability for Just $89 - Including Delivery!" This was a great fit for the money we weren't prepared to spend, so I ordered it. It was to be a part of his birthday present, but we had to wait for it to arrive. I actually didn't read the fine print and didn't know how long it would take to be delivered, however Sean did and told me it was 3-6 weeks.
As it turns out, the freight company tried to deliver it yesterday while we were at work...3 weeks exactly from when I ordered it. So without telling Sean, I popped on to Toll this morning (it is just around the corner (ish) from work) and gave it to him this evening.
Today's pic is of Sean curled up on the lounge playing with his new birthday toy! Happy (late) Birthday Sean!
