1) Random question: Do you use the shift key for capital letters or the caps lock key? Was watching classmates typing notes yesterday (finally deciding to sit at the back row instead of front) and noticed (a) a few using the shift key and (b) others typing with two fingers.

2) Am I old school to assume that you ought to have keyboarding skills?

3) Lost my kindle last week by stupidly putting it down in a fast food place and not realising it until 2 hours later. By then, of course... >_> I'm by turns tickled and alarmed to think that someone is reading Skyfall slash on it. (Got kindle deregistered but its contents are there. Didn't lose data, though; I backed up my kindle just a few days before.)

4) Have excuse now to buy a Paperwhite, even though it hits a bit at my finances.

1. Caslock for sentances, I use shift with my left pinky for the start of Sentences And What Not when typing. (And then use ring finger on typing up Capital A's and middle for Capital W's etc.)

2. No. It's a very necessarily skill being able to type competently in today's world, for the majority of people IMO.

3. Ack. Maybe you'll get lucky and it will turn up later for you. (My sister lost her phone doing the same, and it turned up later in my car (which she had borrowed at the time). Both me and Serena had searched the car before it showed up.

4. :( - hopefully you'll enjoy the purchase anyway.

I use the caps lock and I find it to be really flexible and very fast when I type. Though that could be just because of habit.

Nah, I think the kindle's gone forever.

I'm really quite eager for my paperwhite now!
