Things I have been selling or giving away…
PC tower, eliminating clutter, cables, awkward hubs and wires, slow drives, and obsolescence, Windows 10
Landline phone - too expensive, too many nuisance calls
Kindle eReaders - Paperwhites too hard to navigate, books and media much too expensive
Conventional speakers and sound systems - take too much space, are nowadays included in devices
Old headphones - cost, confusing controls, poor fit, old bluetooth
Most news and magazine subscriptions - far too costly on Amazon
Many individual book purchases - available now with services and especially Calibre searches
Older streaming TV “sticks
And replacing with…
HP $200 Win 11 15” laptop, also 17” with touch screen at $400
Ethernet phone service with Obihai adapter - $40 a .year
Latest 8” Kindle Fire for easy ebook reading (with read aloud voice)
Alexa Echo wall plugins with distributed speakers
New $20 folding swivel bluetooth headphones with simple controls
New Moto smart phone WITH year’s service for under $100 total (HSN)
Old overstocked but still new top Nexus 5x phone now under $100 on eBay (with separate free TextNow phone number and service)
Apple News on old iPad with VAST reading access, nothing else gives such broad reading access
Calibre app on Mac or Windows for books - with broadest media searching and access at least cost (see wikihow)
Google Chromecast TV with remote control and ease of use, best searching by far, though limited apps
Roku Ultra for ethernet, 4K, and vast app/channel library
