Well, I'd be glad to loan ebooks if it was legally and technically possible, however...since all that's still up in the air...
I do read with my netbook in bed. Admittedly, it's not as easy as with my EZ Reader. I want a tablet PC too, but I have the same problem as you do, the price. I'm hoping next year brings a few slate type devices with lower prices.

I know. I got to that last sentence and I was just even the WSJ bought into it! ARGH!!

Chris says that sure Apple's going to release a tablet. After they decide what is "wrong" with every other tablet on the market, fix those problems, add a "gee whiz" factor,and then mark it up about a thousand percent.
He's probably right. He usually is about these things.
