the book comes first, but i'd prefer it as an ebook if possible. since i got my cybook i've bought 27 ebooks, 6 pbooks, 5 paper graphic novels and wallowed in classics. in fact, i reread all the l. frank baum oz books, the 1 ruth plumly thompson that's out of copyright, several francis hodgson burnetts and a stack of other fun stuff. also read several from baen's free library and some more from other sources.
i do still love the feel and smell of paper books, and my favorites will be - whenever possible - in both e and paper form. but for sheer sit-back-and-read joy, ebooks rock! and you still can't beat finishing a book in a series at 1 am, heading off to books on board or fictionwise and downloading the next book all within 2 minutes
