Hum, last time I was called to jury duty I carried my iPhone, my iPad, a mophie battery, an eBook reader and assorted wires (plus water and snacks). No problems at all. Of course, once you actually get into the courtrooms then you are suppose to be focused on the trial.

Like you I have books from when I was a teenager. I still have some of my early paperbacks that cost 60 cents when I bought them brand new. The only paper books that I actually read these days are books that aren't available as ebooks and those rarely. Most of the ones that I read in paper are somewhat obscure specialized non fiction.
