With this machine you are stuck with whatever they want to charge for a book. No thanks.
I much prefer a hard copy so I can pass it around to the family and friends.
Somethings should not be electronic, books are to important to become something that could dissapear when something new and more advanced comes along. Take eight tracks and now cassetts.
I can't speak for others, but I love my NookColor and I love my books, too. I thought it would be very difficult to adjust to reading electronically but it isn't--for me it is sometimes easier, like when I read in bed at night. Not all of us have access to book stores. A book is it's content--it is what you read, not how you read it! Your brain doesn't care how the words got there, just that they made it.
