Depends on the guy. I avoided those type entirely. Who wants to enter into a relationship with someone who's likely to fool around behind your back?

Fair enough. I know some guys in high school just want to get into a girls pants tho. I am gonna be one of those crazy fathers if I have a daughter. The ones always sharpening knives and polishing guns when the BF comes over. I'll also prolly stalk them if they go on dates. I might have to convert to Nikon so I have black lenses so I don;t stick out when I am hiding in a bush.

Kingston is just as well respected. And it's $25. And has better reviews.

I actually have that reader...I think Nick recommended it

Heh, hi Steven! I have been compiling some data today. I tested 4 of my memoryc ards, I plan to test more.

Transcend CF 32GB 400x
Sequential Read : 80.909 MB/s
Sequential Write : 37.758 MB/s
Random Read 512KB : 69.282 MB/s
Random Write 512KB : 3.219 MB/s

Transend 16GB CF (400x)
Sequential Read : 73.430 MB/s
Sequential Write : 44.257 MB/s
Random Read 512KB : 64.651 MB/s
Random Write 512KB : 2.006 MB/s

Sandisk 16GB Extreme Pro SDHC UHS-1 SD (95MB/s / 633x)
Sequential Read : 72.909 MB/s
Sequential Write : 69.938 MB/s
Random Read 512KB : 69.019 MB/s
Random Write 512KB : 5.058 MB/s

Kingston 16GB SDHC (Class 4)
Sequential Read : 22.149 MB/s
Sequential Write : 12.845 MB/s
Random Read 512KB : 21.803 MB/s
Random Write 512KB : 2.249 MB/s

EDIT: Only the Kingston lived up to it's speed rating. Class 4 is only 4MB/s and it got a write speed of almost 13MB/s. Although I realize the speed rating is for read speeds generally, I am a bit sad that the other cards didn't really live up to their speed in the write department. The fancy Sandisk Extreme Pro didn't live up in either category

Like to date maybe, but not marry.

Never said marry The one I married was the one who lost it to me

It is very sexist isn't it? A girl who gives out plenty is considered a slut, but a bloke who gives plenty is considered a stud.

Not sure if we are talking about the same thing. Cherry?

Definitely sexist. Am I to act politically correct now?

My mom saw me reading on my Kindle (old school Kindle mind you) and she was like "That's too small! Let me buy you an iPad!" I was like "No thanks mom... I am fine on this"

e-ink is totally superior for the purpose of reading. Superior battery life too.

Yep, I love the e-ink. But I kind of want an iPad so I can highlight and do markings. Notes on the Kindle is awkward IMO and you can't highlight stuff. iPad has a nice app for $10 that pretty much does everything I want.

You're in the minority, I should say. Most people don't highlight. Even when I used books for school, I never once highlighted anything. If necessary, I'd have a separate notebook where I'd mark down specific page numbers, paragraph numbers, order based on context, etc.

It depends on what you read I think. In my under grad I never highlighted or marked much. For some reason reading for law school and law documents, I just want to annotate them... when I read normal books, I don't.

EDIT: YES, I AM A MINORITY. SO WHAT?!

That's profession-related. Totally different.
