As an aside, I don't know how mimicking the feel of a book spine in your hand means the device is fading into the background. Why would aspects of reading paper books that have nothing at all to do with the act of reading itself factor into design?

I don't recall a physical book disappearing, I still had to turn pages, so I don't get this obsession with the device disappearing tbh.
