A matter of size and heft - isn't it always like that, he asked rhetorically

Oh, I absolutely agree with you: there's no sane or rational reason to carry more than what is needed.

However, I do like the idea of having 100s and 100s of novels. I actually convinced one person already to buy the Reader when he realized I had Proust's massive "In Search of Lost Time" on the Reader (the public domain version).

Aside: I would buy the ebooks of the newer translations if they were made available.

So: For ME, it's the notion that I can take with me 300-400 novels, for example, when I go back to Peru - but this time, instead of my REB1100 I'll have the Sony Reader for the two months I'll be there.

Cheers,
Don
