My mother is a technophobe, and furthermore, she's not allowed to have a computer anyway, because then she'd ask me for help with it.
However, she does like iPlayer. Specifically, she likes to phone me and ask me to "acquire" radio programmes for her that she missed. Until now, I've done this either by putting them on my iPad so she can listen to them when I visit, or putting them on a CD. But now I've run out of blank CDs. As I am a geek, I would like to solve the problem by throwing a ridiculous amount of technology at it. After all, what's the point of living in The Future if I can't solve her problem by deploying more computing power than existed on the entire planet when she was born? So ... a Kindle. If I buy her a Kindle with 3G (it has to be 3G, cos there's no wifi network available) can I "push" audio content to it? Or if not, could I configure the web browser on the Kindle to have something that I control as its default page, and she can download audio from that? -- David Cantrell | Bourgeois reactionary pig THIS IS THE LANGUAGE POLICE PUT DOWN YOUR THESAURUS STEP AWAY FROM THE CLICHE
