    Amazon returns

    I am starting to experience similar degradation issues with Canada Post, but so far not to this degree. Then again, other than returns, I haven't mailed a letter or package in 20 years. It's a dead business model that effectively can't even use its profits to subsidize its rural operations...

    GONE NOW: Free Kobo Reader (Calgary Forum Members Only)

    I have an older (~ 5yrs) Kobo Reader. I just bought the newer Elispa Kobo reader that can do annotations. I'd hate to toss the old one as it works perfectly. Like all eInk readers you can read on it for weeks without needing to recharge it. It has the adjustable backlit feature as well that can...
