Hi everybody,
You might be interested in a new article on e-books vs. paper books found in today’s New York Times:

“By-the-Book Reader Meets the Kindle” http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/29/books ... ?th&emc=th

Cheers,

I was planning to buy an ebook reader last year but I'm not sure if I like the Kindle. It's not really ... a beauty to look at. Maybe there are others like the one from Sony. Or maybe no, one year later, there is more choice. Of course the iPhone is a very nice possibility. I have lot's of books on there.
