I have moved to iOS for almost everything.  I have a 64GB 5G touch for all my 
audio content, an iPad mini Retina for reading kindle magazines visually and 
sometimes verbally along with watching video content, and the iPhone 5S is for 
everything else.  My Plextalk is up for sale because I just don't use it 
anymore.  I also have a Kindle Paperwhite 2 and a Kindle 8 for reading books 
and reviewing docs visually.  All five items fit in a small neoprene sleeve, 
which I can throw in a small bag with ease.  I'm constantly amazed at how much 
access to printed content we now have.  For all the things that still need 
changed to make life more equitable for us,  this is not an area that I see as 
being as much of a problem for us as it once was.  All in all, I'm very happy 
with this part of my life these days.

They say life is stranger than fiction, be that as it may, read anyway.

Me too! I use my iPad and iPhone constantly – so much so that I gave my Kindle 
to someone else. Also, I no longer use my Booksense Plus, so I gave it to 
someone  who was on that list.

I love the kindle app and use it constantly. My kindle keyboard is gathering 
dust and will eventually be looking for a new home.
