Re: Kindle (question for Mason)
If you are going to dispute my arguments, please argue against my entire thought processes and not pick out small details. I am not an expert on book-publishing, but I think I know a little more than you. I even give knowledge and you ignore it.

Re: Kindle (question for Mason)
As a voracious reader with limited space (I sold off about twelve boxes of books recently), the idea of being able to "hold" so many books in the kindle does appeal to me, but any e-reader needs to be able to do what a good book does and that is make me lose myself in the experience. According to some reviews, the kindle does this.

most younger people prefer ebooks. [/ QUOTE ] The publishing industry has a lot of research that says otherwise. Please do not make statements like this without backing it up with proof. I spent the past 7 years of my life as a publisher, I can assure you the industry isn't fully embracing this new technology - yet (consult with the MPA for more details). We know this is the eventual destination, but we wont begin to see acceptance until flexible e-paper is released (estimated 2010ish - please read the Kimble thread in OOT for more details).

Re: Kindle (question for Mason)
Hi Doc:
I know nothing about Kindle and would have to learn a great deal about the whole operation before we would consider something like it. Best wishes, Mason
