Sweet spot of price and performance
New enough to perform well all around but old enough to find a bargain. Sure it's more laggy than a newer model but most of the time that's barely noticeable. Camera too will be better on a newer model but it still does a great job and a world better than cheaper phones no matter how new. Very happy I chose this phone. Battery life is my only complaint but that's what you get when you buy a great phone for $50 used.

Annoying!
This is one frustrating textbook to be assigned. The organization and design are really poor. For example: Design - the text will be cut off mid-sentence by a diagram that you don't need to look at until the next page, when you have to flip back and forth to refer to it. Organization - information is scattered about so you feel like you're reading the same [boring] thing 20 times, so you start skimming, but then you miss the one kernel of information that's added each time (the book would be shorter, lighter, AND easier to read if it were organized better). Also, the author includes full citations for everything, like a term paper (a loooong one), so you can lose track of the sentence you're reading by trying to hunt through all the names and dates to find the information. Footnotes, anyone?!
Sheesh. This is going to be a long semester...
