Thanks for the tip, Dave.  I just ordered one with a $ 100.00 bill app
and one with a cup of Folgers app.

I'm looking for operations that are free and clear of that system so I don't have to go back and redo 7 or 8 years of work or take the time to convert it all to their system.  I'm all for media migration to new systems to keep up with the changes in technology, but when it takes 12 minutes to convert an 8-page file to the appropriate format, I get more than a little bit hesitant to make the switch.  The bottom line is: I could rescan all 34,000 pages of material into the new system quicker than I could convert it.  If you're running JPEG or music, or videos, it's a different story than for text documents.  things could change, and probably will, but right now I'm not happy with the Apple techniques.

I looked over the whole range of readers, Ipads, etc, and decided the Kindle Fire is the only one that let's you load a bunch of high-resolution files and view them without having to go through a lengthy translation process.  So at tractor shows this summer, I'll have the entire archive of Power King literature (over 34,000 pages) with me for reference on a device that will last all day without having to be recharged.
