I like real books. I've bought first editions of things I really like, and I am not getting rid of them.

But I am a total convert to ebooks. I find them easier to read than most paperbacks, and the dictionary and search functions are becoming indispensable to me.

I do find the 6" still too small, though. Somehow, for me, reading a book on the 8" screen iLiad is more satisfying, even though the Kindle UI is much better.
