@Dennis:

Have all ways loathed those 'seed packets' that fall from a magazine, and have never willfully opened a scented foldout.

Will concede that the pop-up book is an art form , but beyond that, many of the subtle nuances of paper bundles will one day, and I hope soon, be integrated into the digital reading experience.

As displays improve, and colour comes to the market, Cover Art will be just as relevant. As the processing power increases with resolution, so too will the number of fonts available.

Call me a zealot, but I am eager for our 'brave new world' with such books in it.
