I have to say, I'm not a huge fan of eReaders per se, but the Kindle was arguably the top of the pile...or was until the iPad came along. Call me a purist, but I just can't see myself ever reading anything other than a printed book...the whole tactile and olifactory experience just can't be replicated in electronic form. Plus, with a book your batteries never run out, you're unlikely to be mugged for it and it won't break when you sit on it. Thanks, Mark.

I really don't like the idea of lugging around a phone the size of a novel and as for being a dream to type on, I really see it being so. But then, I'm not much of a fan of the ubiquitous iPhone either. I'd be interested to hear what you think of Kindles too. Peace, I pretty much agree with everything you’ve said.
