One of the things I hope to do over the next while is scan and OCR my collection of magazines especially, but also many of my favourite non-fiction books. It just seems wrong to me that I can't buy computer-related books in electronic format, but I'm also looking forward to being able to search and re-read many of the gender studies, sociology and philosophy books that I just can't bring myself to lug about for the time it takes to read them. But for now I fear that the cost of the reader is the smallest part of the cost of owning the ebook ... I just ordered an A3 scanner for the magazine collection
