I thought it was quite cute actually. I look forward to the next one where he is on the speed boat living the life.

I prefer real ebooks to those dead-tree things in every way. I have plenty of space but I won't buy a pbook even when it is much cheaper than the ebook -- although in that case I might not get the ebook either.

I agree the intro should be tightened up a bit. Also number 1 was talked about, but 2 and 3 were not given equal time. If not enough info is given...why should I continue to watch? |

It just isn't the same without the remains of a slaughtered tree in my hands.

One of the reason that E-books are better is!
The pages do not get dogged eared! |

I don't think we should be too eager to bash paper books. First those will never go totally out of fashion (or at least I hope they won't) for they are a huge part of the human experience, they have been around for centuries and I have read a lot of them before the advent of electronic books.
I don't think we should just forget about those like we did vinyl discs after the advent of CD's DVD's Blurays ... |
