Yeah ... Slite ... the smell of books. Try a soft leather cover for your reader and you get the look, the feel AND the smell of the highest quality hardback possible (and you don't need two hands to hold it). As for availability of titles, Panda -- how many titles does your local high street bookstore carry? Will they give you classics freeof charge or promise you the latest hot best seller within half an hour of release? IF you're ordering a treebook on line in the hot flush of enthusiasm, will the online store deliver it within the nexst two minutes? Gaurnim -- you're right, of course, but I tend not to read whilst scuba diving. Also, those who complain have glanced at readers, perhaps, but never given them time. Knee-jerk reporting. Ereaders are an acquired taste like Cognac and also Marmite sandwiches. There is only one thing to recommend treebooks ... you can use them to prop up a wobbly table. OK, two things, you can also throw them at the wall when they're trash ... much more satisfying than merely tapping the delete button, I guess. Neil
