It's technology, it's a gadget, so of course I am attracted. But I am hesitant. Books are great, not just because of the story, but also because of the look, the feel, the smell. That they can sit on a shelf and when you glimpse them out of the corner of your eye they bring back memories. That seems a lot to lose. Mind you, I have run out of shelf space. And being able to take 5 books on holiday without needing an extra bag seems attractive. Then what about choice, 650000 books sounds a lot to chose from but they may not include some of my more eclectic tastes.
I suspect I will ponder. I will deliberate. And then one night after a whisky I will order one anyway!
