A Book Update

Lighter, Smaller, Faster
AND less expensive!
Who could ask
for more?
Amazon is great about making updated books you may have purchased very easy to update on your little machines. Since I have multiple Kindles on my account (two are with relatives in other parts of the country), all I did was answer yes in the first line of my reply to the following email and I felt comfortable knowing no matter where that book was, it would be updated automatically.

============
