Using the word "I" in cover letters?

Reading another interview on Hiring Librarians. This one points to being tired of the use of the word "I" in resumes/cover letters. I can figure out how NOT to use I in the resume, but it's not so easy in the cover letter. What do you do to not overuse the I?

An irritation with Kindle

I don't have the device itself, but the program is loaded on my computers and iPod Touch. I never paid much attention to the little location thingy because I just plowed through a book. BUT and this is huge, I finally was able to buy a Kindle textbook and I was so excited until I'm to use a rubric on page 129. No problem. I can't figure it out, but it's got to be able to convert to page numbers. I hit Google with my question. And the answer is: ding, ding, ding It can't be done! There isn't a way to convert. What's more, Amazon has told multiple students that their way is superior. APA style even has a citation using Kindle locations. Well, whoopdidoo.

Guess who will be getting my ebook business in the future?
