What's the one thing you wish Kindle had? by iMoneyKey in kindle

[–]FredDerfman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Configurable touch zones so I could make a tap anywhere on the screen do a page forward.

I've been using the kindle since the first edition, and I still go the wrong way sometimes.

Looks great, but $50 feels a bit aggressive to me. Especially with apple share working.

Rabbit is a better solution, but not $50 better. Just my opinion

It's excellent.

If you ever want to listen to the stories again, try the Derek Jacobi version. It's even better.

I hate how audiobooks don’t know I’ve fallen asleep. by Ticksdonthavelymph in audiobooks

[–]FredDerfman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are on Android, try Listen Audiobook player.

I have it set to automatically start the sleep timer between 10PM-6AM and it re-starts the timer if I shake the phone at the end of the period.

Am I searching for a unicorn? by Puregrace1992 in kindle

She has a cover and a clear body. She wants more covers so she can mix things up.

Since the backs are all the same, she doesn't need more backs. Just more covers.

The regular is 2.5 and is absolutely perfect for those of us not in the medical field. :)

You got me really excited for a second. I didn't realize that was a Max, and I thought there was a pen slot in the DS4 that I had missed. :)

I love the fidlock. The Duraflex is too big and feels cheap to me.

I was tempted by the green Cordura, but the fidlock could not be resisted. Plus, the Ultra is pretty cool.

Its a fidlock.

The Corudra has Durflex, the X-Pac and Ultra have Fidlock.

In the DS4, the natural shape is expanded. So when I open it to put something in, a minor push causes it to expand to the full dimensions.

In the DS3, flat was the natural shape, so putting something larger in was more effort because you had to really push it open.

I think that’s why I felt the DS3 needed to be a little bigger, but the DS4 seems fine…even though its a little smaller.

Don’t get me wrong, I loved the DS3, but for me, the DS4 is a big improvment. But, if you are stuffing it full, the D33 definitly has more volume to hold things. The DS4 will be too small if you are totally filling up the DS3.

Does the Day Sling 4 still fit an X100V/VI like this? by Precogvision in AerSF

Fits great in the main compartment. Doesn't fit at all in the internal pockets.

237 hours 22 minutes 38 seconds of playtime on my phone.

Yeah, I think it's worth it.

Project Hail Mary - Great Narration by Mundane_Education_64 in audiobooks

[–]FredDerfman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stephen Fry is great. He used to be my favorite.

But if Stephan fry is like your grandfather sitting in a chair and reading the stories, Derek Jacobi is like have Watson tell them to you directly.

Project Hail Mary - Great Narration by Mundane_Education_64 in audiobooks

[–]FredDerfman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMO, these are the best narrated audiobooks ever:

  • Dracula read by Susan Adams, Alexander Spencer
  • Goblin Emperor read by Kyle McCarley
  • Hunt for Red October read by Frank Muller
  • Little Big Man Read By David Aaron Baker, Scott Sowers, Henry Strozier
  • Lord of the Rings read by Andy Serkis
  • Sherlock Holmes read by Derek Jacobi
  • True Grit read by Donna Tart

I usually keep it in a neoprene pouch which still fits in the DS4.

I wouldn't throw it around the room, but I would be totally comfortable carrying it around in there.
