I liked Natch's reply:
yeah, the sales of e-books is nothing compared to that of paper or audio books. Um.... how many electronic versions of those same traditional books did they sell again?
Not to flog a dead equine, but this self-fulfilling prophecy of releasing scant portions of a product, then claiming that the product was unsuccessful simply rankles.
I suppose that the counter-argument is that if electronic text was so popular, the demand would be overwhelming and the publishers would thus be forced to expand the market.
Sorry for the rant. The article was very good, and I hope that we see the extended implementation of electrophoretic displays that they envision.
