That's amazing!

Definitely beats whats out on the market now, even the iPad in my opinion.

I agree, I've been looking into e-readers. The price and the practical use just doesn't add up for me. Maybe I'm just old school and like my books on paper or that maybe I don't even read much due to the lack of time.

My real wonder is, how exactly will these publishers react? Surely, somehow they have to figure out how to exploit the system and over-charge one way or another. Just like they do nowadays.

Plus another problem with the times now are all these copyright issues. Do I really own a book when I buy a digital format? Will I be able to re-download them if something happens to them?

I'm loving how we're moving from paper to digital but it has me worried about who here is really in control of their possessions nowadays. But I suppose that falls under a whole new different issue.

Anyway, just rambling, aside from all that I like where this trend is going. :]
