All right folks.
It has been nice chatting with you all on so many various and sundry topics.
Sadly, doubt that I will ever be investing any money into the SONY Reader, or any E-text device.
Earlier today, phone Penguin Books--the publisher of J. Kerouac, and W. Gibson, at the least--to see about tranferring--legally--my physical library. While waiting for a customer service rep., perused the web site so I could maybe rattle of some ISBN's.
Out of the twelve books that I saw onscreen, the four(!) that were offered as e-text made me simply hang up the phone. Want to read about Relativity? $11.00 hardcover, $10.00 paperback **$16.95** for a MS Reader format.
Sorry kids. Can never spend twice as much for a file that the creator thinks I'm just borrowing. Have fun. The game's too rich for my blood
