And what do we, the book-buying public, want? Cheaper prices, as ever, but we're also all expecting books to move beyond dead text and into something much more dynamic, something loaded with rich media, something that makes use of the color and graphics of our tablet screens, and perhaps the social networking powers they also sport as apps.

I wish people would stop telling me that I want flash and dazzle and social networking. I'm perfectly happy with long-form text on an e-ink screen. And, being something of an introvert, I hate that social networking is being pushed down my throat everywhere I look. If I want to be social, I'll go out looking for it.
