And if that happens, the woman is basically as ignorant as you.

Moreover... "a paper brain woman" will be seduced probably faster if you are holding a $600 iPad than a pbook. She will be probably be looking for your money and is a no brainer that electronic devices are not cheap.

Now, this is 21st century. We can't stop technology but learn how to live with it. I do not think pbook will disappear altogether but having a huge collection of pbooks to impress is not just silly but ignorant. You save trees with ebooks and you can also save space in your house. It is also faster to find a book if you use a management or database for your collection.

I do not buy ebooks to look smart but "feeding my brain" ...
jeez.. have you never heard of satire?
