I am a little speechless about this to be honest. Text is text, and the ebook devices offer more ways to invest yourself in the text by marking your favourite passages with notes, flipping to a particular favourite section in seconds.

Writing notes in your traditional books is possible but the power with which you can revisit and flag text in ebooks is far superior. He's also ignoring the power of being able to carry 200 books in your pocket
