I would like to really reduce my number of pbooks, but I don't think I'll ever be rid of them entirely (nor do I want to be). I'm starting with downloading Gutenberg texts and formatting them nicely for Mobipocket, or finding free nicely formatted files elsewhere (like the MobileRead databases). That will clear out three or four shelves on its own. After that, I'll see where things stand. I am hanging on hopefully to the idea that the Kindle will increase the likelihood of backlist books being digitized commercially, and in many cases I'll happily rebuy for a reasonable price (say, the price of a mass market paperback, or a little less--in many cases, I would have to replace falling-apart paperback versions anyway).
