I now spend long hours in front of my computer screen trying to decide if this or that book (priced the same!) would be more fun on paper or on e-ink and whether there is any possibility that I will meet the author in person and want it signed and whether it would be more fun to display it on a digital shelf or on my real shelves etcetera, etcetera.

I now curse more as well. Nothing like waking up, getting cozy on the couch with a beverage and powering up the e-reader to find out you have what is probably less than 25% percent of a battery (god bless 'em) left and you need to go plug it in to your computer (which isn't already on!) for two-three hours. Much cursing ensues, believe me.

"Apparently I didn't want to read this morning and would rather (much!) do housework for the next three hours as I wait!"
