  1. Yes! If it helps, note-taking is listed among those items "Coming Soon," along with support for the NWT Study Bible, and a new Meetings section to quickly access current congregation meeting materials. We're not just well taken care of - we're spoiled! Thank you Jehovah.
  2. One of my favorite lines . . . Hyacinth answers the phone: "The Bouquet residence the lady of the house speaking . . . Do I sound like a Chinese takeaway? I am a highly desirable private residence in an area of outstanding natural property values, and I am waiting for your apology. Unless of course the thought of bean shoots and crispy wonton have totally stir-fried your basic humanity. And kindly clear this line. There are people of substance in this community who are probably queuing to ring me at this very moment . . . Your suggestion is noted, but I see little practical merit in having the telephone up my jumper."
  3. Shali, yes I love this feature on Android. I use it often to switch from one scripture to another without having to "back out" to the main screen. Didn't realize iPad didn't have that feature until I was talking to another brother who has an iPad, and told him what a great shortcut that was...he looked at me like I had three heads until I showed him what I was talking about.
  4. I have used a lap board and it works well; this last CA just used it on my lap - we don't have much legroom at our CA venue, and found the lapboard to be a bit cumbersome (and risky for anyone who sits in front of me). For only one day, just putting it on my lap seemed to work okay (folded my jacket and put it under the keyboard later in the day and that raised it slightly so it worked even better.
  5. I use a Bluetooth keyboard with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 and have been doing so for several years. I type much more quickly than i can write, so that was the overall appeal. It works very well for me, and I really like the fact that my notes are completely typed up at the conclusion of the session (vs. having type up my handwritten notes after I get home). Admittedly, the Bluetooth keyboard isn't as "comfortable" as a fullsize keyboard, but it's something I've gotten used to over time and my speed has picked up the more I use it.
  6. I'm looking forward to this as well . . . it really makes you feel close to those fine examples of old. The lesson on Abel made a real impact on me when it first appeared in the WT - presented a whole new perspective on him I had never thought of before. Curious to see how much material we consider each week - in any case, much to meditate on and make personal applicaiton.
  7. Yep, and they're closed on Sunday, which - strangely enough - is the day of the week when I seem to crave it the most!
  8. "This is the Moment" is from the musical Jekyll & Hyde. The lyrics have been changed in the version above, and they fit quite nicely with the melody. It's a beautiful song, and for those who are curious, the version from Jekyll & Hyde can be found here:
  9. Just watched recently: "Arsenic & Old Lace" with Cary Grant "How to Steal a Million" with Audrey Hepburn & Peter O'Toole Classics!
  10. And the issue doesn't seem to be limited to one OS - updated and running VERY slow on my iPad4 32gb, but great on my Galaxy Tab2. Always some bugs to work out, but I'm sure our brothers are working on it.
