For me, reading has never been a dying art. I've loved to read since I was a child. I've been the type to mostly have a pBook with me. Now it's my 505 that travels with me. When I read I tend to forget the device and focus on the book.

As long as the device can fade into the background and the story be the main focus then it doesn't matter f it's a Kindle, 505, iLiad, V3, Gen3, iPod Touch. But if you are focusing too much on the device while you read, then that device is not the one for you. Reading is not going to go away. It may change in how we read. But we will still read. And will we read more? For electronic readers to truly be successful, we need to do something about the price and tower of eBable. Once we know prices are reasonable and we can get any electronic reader and go to any eBook shop online and get any of the offerings and know we can view it on whatever device we have, then it will be a success.
