So has anyone tried Ikea's new bookbook? This is incredible.

Never catch on, too thick, too big to fit in a pocket (or too small if you want really large), no ports, no memory expansion...

Revolutionary!

You know, it does remind you of how much work still needs to be done in the digital sphere to make reading digital as convenient as possible.

And I don't mean parity with bookbooks, I just mean making digital reading as obviously useful and pleasant as grabbing a paperback off the shelf.

We have come a long way, but we ain't there yet.

You might also enjoy this.

Reminds me of Indiana Jones' "let's just shoot the sucker" encounter with a menacing, sword-wielding Arab (see the video) in Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), which Playboy magazine later listed as No. 5 in its all-time great film scenes.

Well, it really might become news in 10 years time with dozens of cheap color e-paper leaves bound together into a book for nostalgic readers, depending how big and heavy they want it to be.

50 page A4 color non-touch 300 dpi e-paper leaves book 200 $ (b/w with color covers 100 $)

50 page A4 300 dpi color touch sensitive 300 dpi e-paper leaves book with Stylus 400 $ (b/w with color covers 300 $).
