Sentiments I wholeheartedly agree with. Quite honestly I still prefer the tactile nature of reading a real book and believe it offers the very best reading experience (I doubt that will ever change).
However in my 9 months of Kobo usage, I found the e-ink screen to be close enough such that the benefits of portability, flexibility of being able to borrow books from the library out-of-hours electronically and general convenience of personal library management coupled with inherent space saving (I'm a terrible hoarder of books) to offer real advantages. My old books will stay, but new ones will be digital I think PROVIDING I can find a reliable e-reader!
