***one has to question just how much impact it will actually have on e-book publishing***

Exactly, Pardoz. Ebook facility is a mere also-ran with this new machine. I guess that's OK because Amazon made no promises to the contrary. I can't see the iPad encouraging people to read books -- too many bells, whistles and other attractions. It's ebook-DEDICATED devices (cheap as hell with fair title prices) that will increase the popularity of reading for pleasure. This is just a pretty smart new gizmo that can handle ebooks as an incidental, like your PC, laptop, netbook and phone. Neil
