    Ebook reader for library books

    in Deal Finder & Deal Discussion

    Posted

    I am a librarian. From the discussions I have been in on, you will have to go either Nook or Sony E-reader. The Kindle will NOT work with Overdrive. (They are or have just released a Mac version for the Ipad). Overdrive basically has the market for library e-books. Our system is way too small to do e-books, but if your mom is in an area with a population above 15000, odds are very good, she will be able to get books from Overdrive through her library.

     

    On a side note, I would highly recommend that for Christmas you consider giving your kids a library card. It is a great way to teach them extra responsibility and the cost savings are AMAZING. Today's libraries have so much to offer, from great programs to DVDs, video games, and of course books. OK off my soap box! Just thought since I had a moment, I would try a shameless plug for the libraries! :-)

    Help! I need something unique for a true road warrior. Already has GPS, last year I got them a Sirus radio for their car. They've got the computer laptop desk. I need something creative! Trying to stay around $50-$75 out of pocket. So with some of you great gottadealers that means about a $150 gift LOL.

     

    Thanks,

    I paid with paypal also, had my epic mickey shipped and controllers refunded.

    I think it has to do with when you placed the order.... I placed mine very shortly after this was posted on the boards....

    I was wondering that too. I placed my order around 5:30 pm day of thread and is currently labeled as "processing". Wondering where that puts me in with those who have been cancelled versus those who went through.

     

    If some of you would post the time you ordered if it went through or was cancelled I would be curious to see if we can determine when the cut off was, if there was one.

     

    Thanks,

    I would maybe call around to various Walmarts in your area to see if they still have one available. You might get lucky. Also keep an eye on Amazon for their 17 days of Video game deals. Right now it is priced at 179.99, but may come down if the special is on the right day. Good luck!

    What did your Walmart NOT GET in for the blitz??

    Mine didn't have hardly any movies or cheap games. And they only had two Halo Reach games in the case but refused to sell one to me because they would "lose money."! They said if they were a part of the sale, they would've been on a pallet, which they clearly were not. No one knew what was going on and it was super unorganized. Worst BF experience ever.

    My Walmart had that too. They said they were different UPC numbers.

    Band Hero for the Wii. :-( But, thanks to a great friend, they got if for me at another Walmart. This wal-mart was a zoo. I went in at 11:30 and people were 20 deep in checkout lanes because they already had most of the midnight stuff sitting in their carts and were just in line til checkout began at 12:01. I was really NOT impressed with this new set up.

    Oh yeah, I totally agree. I did Menard's on BF last year in a town of less that 10,000 people and it was a disaster! Nothing is anywhere that makes sense they funneled everyone into the center aisles so you couldn't move and checkout took forever. I don't think I would go in there again for anything!
