Is there some sort of open source e-reader?  I'd like to try reading books on my android based phone, but I have no desire to buy into a closed ecosystem, in case I don't like it.

Found an article that discusses a few. The first one is Google's, even if that's open you can't expect it to stay that way IMO. The other options look pretty neat.

Thanks.  I'll check that out.

And yeah, Google is completely untrustworthy.  " Don't be evil" died a long, long time ago.

kindle format is definitely proprietary but I think bn ebooks are epub format which is widespread, I would guess you could open an ebook bought from bn on any epub reader, not so simple w kindle books

I like my nook, I'm able to borrow ebooks on it from our local library

check your library website Chris they may lend ebooks so that may factor in

Can anyone tell me if its possible to get UPS to hold a package for me to pick up instead of deliver it ?

[Arabit]

I'm sure you can, just call UPS and they'll leave the package in one of their distribution facilities for you to pick up

Yeah you should be able to. You might need to sign up for MyUPS or call them. Also, PM Bagley, he works for UPS as a regional manager or something.

[zhivago]

yes, sign up for UPS my choice on line, or call customer service. It takes some effort but with the right amount of sweet talking you can get them to hold packages at the distribution center for you.

Thanks for the quick responses guys. I got the 68 coming on the same day as graduation (wednesday) and patience is unfortunately not one of my virtues…

Hey - with the advent of an "EXTANT" 1955 cut jean; does anyone know if there are any plans for a fuller cut chino/khaki/duck-workpant?  I'd love to be able to rock IH heavy-weight khaki/chinos to work, but all of the current styles are far to slim in the thigh for me to fit-into.

Black ducks in the 634 cut a-coming…

[Giles]

We have a heavy black duck coming out in the 634 cut later this year.  Unlikely that we will do much else fuller….
