Hi all,
I'm a masters student in Germany at the Köln International School of Design, and I've been working on my masters thesis on the topic of eBooks, the shift from tangible to intangible goods, and peoples' attachment to material things.

It's been difficult to find eReader owners in Germany to interview, since eReaders haven't caught on yet here. I was hoping that maybe some of you on Mobileread might consider answering a few questions for my study. It's just 10 questions about your reading habits and preferences.

I'd be happy to share my results in the future

update:
I took down the link, because I have more than enough survey responses to go through. Thanks guys! I was only expecting around 5 responses, and instead I received 92 in the span of 10 hours (half of which came within the first 3 hours). I really appreciate the support. I'm excited to go through all the material and report back to the forum with some results.

If you'd still be interested in helping by sharing a few minutes of your time, the 2nd survey (which some of you have already done) is still up:

Mobilereads is such a supportive community.
