They are my life blood and I can't imagine not holding a real book with pages in my hands. But on the other hand, I travel a lot and toting around 20lbs of books with me when I'm on a trip is a pain in the butt.<BR/><BR/>I'll just stay perched up here on my fence for now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1246220242273461143.post-19666183088934567492009-02-26T01:29:00.000+00:002009-02-26T01:29:00.000+00:00Right.

I cannot get over the fact that each book will cost $10 after I spend a fortune for the device.
