I think I've read 22 since January, some on the eBookwise 1150, some on the iLiad after I got it. I might have left some out in trying to remember them all, so we could round up to 25. I read three books online just before that, which I'm pretty sure I would have read on a reader if I'd had one yet.

I'm not at all sure how many I've read in paper during that time. Probably a comparable number, and if you include magazines, I'm sure it has been at least as much paper. Some books were from the library, however, and they might need to be counted somewhat differently.

I still prefer to read magazines on paper, even those I have access to in electronic format (like Make). Most of the magazines I get have a lot of "how-to" content and the resolution of the pictures is important. But I'd have read all of the books on the reader if they'd been available.
