Subject: RE: Tech: ebooks - reading when I don't have one
Well, John, it's readable anywhere there's a computer and electricity- until the batteries go dead.

Don't have shelf space? There's these things called "Libraries".

I know that many NEW titles are not available in print, and that's both a major pain in the ass for a lot of people AND a profit windfall for the "publishers".

In turn, you might be surprised how many older books, scholarly books and historical books (by which I last century & before) in particular - are NOT available electronically and never will be.

But then I guess I'm just a Luddite curmudgeon.

Best,

Greg
