Bottom line is those who are readers will read; whether scrolls, pbooks, ebooks or whatever. Nonreaders won't read regardless of media.
No, Sony's reader will not be the ultimate mechanism on which to read, just like my slide ruler (archaic calculating device for you youngsters) was not the ultimate calculating device. But I could not have gotten by without it at the time. I feel the same way about the Sony reader (and about my Palm TX) - I couldn't get along without it at
this time. In ten years or thirty years, I may look back & wonder why. Maybe I'll have a direct mental link to a
World Central Computer that will make any form of in-my-hand book obsolete.
In the meantime, I love my Sony reader --- but still want improvements.
