    You can’t smash a bug with a Kindle. Well, you can, if you want to risk breaking it.

    I would be leery of using a Kindle n the bath tub.

    well, i’ve always thought that electronic books can’t hold a kindle to the printed page…

    In our family we have a e-reader, first gen nook, kindle fire and a iPad 2 (I think). And two bookcases over flowing with books. I like the easy of traveling with the kindle, but I love the feel of a book in my hands.

    A book can be left unread for years, but when you open it, the contents are still there to be read. If an e-book is left alone for years, lots of luck reading it. ( I’ve got books from my grandparents on my shelf.)

    Surely it’s the meaning of the words and not the method of delivery that’s important. After all, both the book and the e-book have to be read.

    The biggest problem is that you can’t get used e-books for $0.50 at the Goodwill or garage sales.

    E-books will kill printed media the same way television killed radio. Nobody listens to THAT anymore…

    Actually, I know plenty of people who still listen to the radio, and books will continue to exist since there will always be those who will want the author to sign their copy.

    I can’t tell whether Ken is being sarcastic or not – but I certainly still listen to the radio as well.

    TV killed radio as it was known at the time. Drama, Soaps, Westerns, etc etc. All that moved to TV and Radio became a place to listen to music. And then there came NPR. Tv had MTV for music for a while but it went down the tubes when they went off to the ‘reality’ shows. What crap!

    I’d much rather see books on my shelves (or anyone else’s) that all that electronic digital trash.

    and when the power goes out and you cant recharge your e-reader, there is always a few candles and plenty of books in my house!

    Agree. That’s the curse of technology. You become dependent on it – until the power goes out. Then what? No video games, no ebooks – back to the basics with real books and regular board games. Now THAT’S family time!
