Home Sweet Home Office

Home office and home library are different rooms as far as I am concerned. I probably should, but I do not read books very often. One of the most difficult items in my home office to store is books. If a book is stored away out of sight it is forgotten. If you forget you have it – why have it?

Once a book has been read do you have to keep it? That is a much debated question.

The few books that I have read from cover to cover are business books. My husband reads about history, wars and some fiction. We also have a few books written by favorite motivational speakers. I cannot remember when we last opened any of these books. They just sit there gathering dust. I hate to dust!

The reason I am thinking about books and how much space they require is that a new e-book has been announced. So far I have not been impressed by most e-books that are available but this one looks pretty good. Books are not the only files that can be downloaded to the iRex – Microsoft documents and PDF files are compatible as well. This truly sets the iRex apart and if that is not enough – the Office and PDF files can be edited on the touchscreen version.

Now you may understand where I am headed. The iRex could save so much space. It would look so much better lying on my desk than a stack of books and papers. The iRex would be very convenient to carry along on trips or to the local coffee shop. Did I mention that the iRex can connect at 3G speeds and has WiFi to boot?

The iRex would get me a little closer to that paperless office that I strive for. Well – at least on my side of the home office.
