So how am i going to enjoy my 1910/11 leather bound, Willy Pogany illustrated Ring cycle books on any eReader? They are full of fine engravings, tipped in colour illos, calligraphic text, hand bound on hand made paper... that's what I mean by "typographically fabulous" and they're definitely not fully justified... these are books as works of art as well items to read and look at... never to be replaced by an eReader which I use for reading especially fiction and any time and place I choose.
