Thanks, for your thoughts, CW. I think I’ve gotten posts from you before, and I like them.
The kindle does support bluetooth, but there’s no wire tangulation (a new word!) problem, because I only listen to it when I’m walking. I put the kindle in a small shoulder bag, connect the headphones, and…well: walk. The headphones live in the bag the rest of the time, although I do carry the kindle around the house with me like rich old ladies carry their Yorkies. (I’m old, but not rich.)
I’ve hooked up my other previous generation kindle to my stereo (do we still use that word?) and I can play music from there as loudly as I want to. It does have a remote. So does my fan. Hell, if it weren’t for walking and listening to audiobooks, I’d never have to get up at all.
Best to you.
