I thought the idea of the "scanning" for new books to be very interesting. It would still preserve that whole idea of "discovering" something among shelves of books that people (myself included) fear from going completely to ebooks. It could also potentially solve the problem of running out of books. If the store kept a display copy, then anyone with a device could just scan for it. I would be very, very intrigued by the idea of technology developing to the point shown in this video.
