i agree with you about the real books paper books whatever. specially about the smell of the paper and ink and even the parfume you had on when you were buying the book ect. if some people don't understand the importance of these things in reading process, i suggest them to read a book about the brain system on their digibook;) kidding, pls don't get offended again. if you ask me i agree with both dreampowder and digibook fans. i deffinitly will buy one of digies for any case they are good for.
I've bought one of these, yet I know what you mean about real books, especially very old ones. There is a sensuality about them: the crispness of old paper, the musty smell, the old font etc. I think there's a place for both. I bought the sony to read gutenberg project books of classics I don't own in book form. I get a headache from my PC. I'll still buy books from sales cos I hate the price of ebooks.
i really dont know why people are so offended with my repolies? saome ppl gave me negative points, some ppl offended with words.. its just my opinion and my thought. if you like to store your books in that device well store em as you like. i would love to have that if those were around when i was a student (3 years ago). but i never prefer it as a primary reading device. i dont want to worry about warranty time when i am keeping my books.
because real books are beautiful! and they never go out of charge :) the only thing that ebooks are good for students so they can carry all their school books in their palm. when you hold a real book, it takes you away to the time you bought it. maybe you were just a high school kid when you bought it, or something else.. eBooks dont have that and i dont know an electronic device that can stand for 10's of years.
You don't read by smell. And why collect one ton of books when you can fit the whole lot in the palm of your hand? Stop being such an old fashioned fuddy duddy!
its really usefull for students, but not good for reading novels in my opinion.. im kinda "book collector" and i like the smell of real ink and paper..
i also wanted to ask if these thingies can show all scripts or they are only good for latin script.
