WELL, I think it was bad thinking on somebody’s part that this thing is out of stock until February. — I’m eager to see it because I’m fascinated with what ebooks mean for the book world — individual short stories being published, out of print books available on kindle, long forgotten authors once more there for the click of a button. So I guess I’ll buy the Nook whenever they get it in stock. As for Kindle, I love it. But then I love hardcover books too and paperbacks and am surrounded by them. But ebooks are the future, and its a future that is good for readers, which is a wonderful thing.
