Still lurking in Alrewas

It’s a glorious day, weatherwise, which is a big consolation to Sheila, who is slowly getting over her cold. It’s been another day for low key activity, pottering down to the village for a paper and bread, going for a gentle stroll after lunch, and the like.

There’s a certain amount of traffic about, it being half term, so a bit of time spent at the lock down onto the river passes very easily.

I had my session with the diabetic nurse this afternoon; tomorrow it’s Sheila’s turn to do health stuff whilst I lurk on the boat.

We’re thinking about selling one of the Sony eReaders, since we don’t need two, but want to keep one as we’ve some DRM’ed books on there. Before selling one, we’d want to de-authorise it from our Adobe Digital Editions account, of course, and guess what, that’s not very straightforward. It seems you actually have to contact Adobe via the website to get them to delete the reader.

Weird – with the Kindle, you can do it from the Kindle when it’s connected to Amazon, or go to your Amazon Kindle webpage and do it there. Another example of the way Amazon are just so much more user friendly than the Adobe associated kit.
