Yes, i agree that it was sad with the so-called Letto... However I still have hope but it is going to take some time. I think in countrys such as Sweden, the biggest threat to ereading is the shortage of books in swedish (or other native language) because even if a few dedicared readers like myself do enjoy reading in english I donīt think most people do... They want to read in a language they understands well. Also it is quite difficult to demonstrate and speak well of the benefits of ebook lending att the library when there is hardly any titles available and most of those that are available is older books.
However nowadays audiobooks is really popular, but it took a long time for them to to become so... I will give it some time.
Still I can not understand the publishers reluctance with ebooks, itīs not like pbooks will go away any time soon (if ever). I am hoping that the iPad will change that (not because I nessesarily thinks iPad is ideal for reading ebooks) because thr ublishers will think that everything Apple touches turn to gold...
