Double both estimates and you'll be where I'm at and that's after I cut myself off. I have another 30-40 books on my online wish list. It's too easy to buy the darn things and I really want to read them all right now. I used to keep my unread books on the bookshelf on my headboard and that would keep my out of the bookstore but now I need to find will power from another source.
I can only say that I've found my electronic reading experience to be very satisfying and I'm reading more. I agree with him that if you walk in a bookstore in 10 years there will be about the same amount of pbooks but I think that the bookstores are going to be harder to find. Not necessarily a good thing.
