We are trying to make our ebooks more paper like so they can be accepted along side the paper books of today.

There's a parallel here.



The only downsides to ebooks are: (1) ridiculous DRM that forbids me from selling used books, and (2) possible failure during (for example) power outages.

I said possible, not probable.

Everybody should have a solar-powered charger at home. Those things become better and better. I have one at home that will charge up to 8 AA batteries or I could connect it to my appliance by way of a connector.

When you're going camping for 3 weeks, and you're going by bike, something like that is very helpful to keep your mobile phone running
