> I couldn't do this with notebooks as there is a lack of "something" for me that doesn't quite allow me to be as disciplined as I am with the device right now. I understand this. I prefer notebooks for certain tasks and have some good systems I can use to organize it but having a centralized device is very powerful for maintaing what you call discipline. > Regarding it being another gizmo by adding news, I think that since I didn't get it for the "disconnection" it doesn't feel like corrupting it. Especially in this format (clean, no images, just information at glance). Yeah, part of it is the philosophy you bring to it (it's a tool, after all). Also depends on your view of "the news". I have a generally negative view, avoid most of it, so that leads me to having a different outlook.
