Not a single one of my texts was available, not even the basic stuff like BIO 111. That's always been the problem with e-textbooks, no support.

A Storm-sized screen plus a physical keyboard. Excellent. The touch keyboard was a little too slow to use.

@dicobalt Would that we were doing that.

@rmasilionis No. I'm against the government owning car companies. Especially given that they also run the regulatory agencies and can "investigate" their competitors, as is happening with Toyota right now. That could have been seen coming 100 miles away by anyone paying attention. To own both a means of production and the means of damaging one's "competition" is a recipe for corruption.

Sorry, won't buy the Obamamobile.

But seriously, folks....

This is like the Von Neumann colonization method, version 0.3. When the robot can mine materials and build a structure suitable for humans, we'll really have something.

The $2.2 is in Obama Bucks.

1 = $1,000,000,000.

You do not. charge. more for the digital copy than the physical one. This has been shown over and over again. What's it going to take for publishers to finally GET this?

I will eventually. Someone has finally put out one page-size reader to read them all (Mobi, eReader, Kindle, Zinio). I've been waiting for what seems like forever for that to happen.

Since B&N recently acquired Fictionwise, the question arises: Will their reader read any of the formats sold there, or will they use yet another format?
