of all my geeky habits and love of tech and gadgets, this is one thing I won't get.
yes, there are cheap and free ebooks, but most are still 9.99, even older titles.. why should I spend $9.99 on an ebook when I can get the real thing for less 99% of the time?
if I buy a $20 hardcover book, it should include a coupon or something for a free ecopy,.
I can understand the convenience of the device, having multiple books in less space than a single book takes, very handy when travelling, saves space, and you don't have to bring a ton of books in case you are a fast reader, etc, but I can do that on my android phone, or my netbook, if I am really that hard up for something to read and want to spend that much money for something. If I am going to spend that much, I want something tangible, something I can keep.
that and the fact that I am very fond of reading a real, paper page book, and enjoy having my favorites on display in the book case.
