Now there's something I hadn't thought of Bryce Send a noteboard - 04/09/2009 01:00:06 AM


Nope, I agree. I didn't get rid of my fairly substantial book library when I bought my e-reader, and don't plan to. I do enjoy reading on the e-book reader more though, and use that for general purpose stuff. Books are cool to have, collect, loan, etc, but I've definitely come to prefer the reader.


I hadn't really thought about trying to lend someone a book with an e-reader, but that WOULD seem to be slightly more difficult, no?

Now that is a clever idea. - 03/09/2009 11:14:07 PM 772 Views
