I would love to replace all of my leisure reading with ebooks! My reader makes it so much easier to read wherever and whenever I want. Unfortunately, I have been collecting paperback books for years and having just recently cataloged them using the CollectorZ software with a barcode scanner, found that I have over 2000 books! It will be sometime before I can replace many of those.

As for my teaching manuals, professional journals and reference guides, I will have to wait until they have perfected eink and epaper to the point where I can display a larger page with better pictures.

On the other hand, I also have many children's books that I use as read alouds in my classroom (both picture and chapter books) and can't quite imagine how I would use an ereader in that context. The younger ones love to turn the pages for me!!
