Last week, an editor on wired.com wrote an editorial about why ebooks aren't there yet. You can see that story
here. For those that don't want to read the whole story, I've copied his 5 points below.
1) An unfinished e-book isn’t a constant reminder to finish reading it.
2) You can’t keep your books all in one place.
3) Notes in the margins help you think.
4) E-books are positioned as disposable, but aren’t priced that way.
5) E-books can’t be used for interior design.
This week, there has been a very nice
point for point rebuttal peice on Laptop.com.
Just thought I'd share as this is always an interesting coversation, but with all the recent naysaying, it was nice to see the other point of view.
