Just turned 41 ... saw the first Indiana Jones movie when I was 14 and just found out I will be watching the next one through bifocals... aaargh ....
Never enjoyed prolongued reading on any kind of backlit screen much, so it wasn't until e-ink that I got really, really interested in the whole e-book thing.
Though somebody let me play with a Newton once and I almost caved in...
Now if only more use was made of the fact that text on e-ink CAN look like a printed page; right now, it feels as if the makers of e-books are still stuck making books for devices from ten years ago.
Imperfect and incomplete as it is though, I couldn't imagine living without my Iliad now.
