DRM bad. DRM bad.

I love reading. I read a ridiculous number of ebooks on my old Palm III, as well as on my Nokia N770. I don't happen to have any time in my current life configuration that is down and away from home and work, so the appeal of an ebook reader is diminished currently. Even so, I find it amusing that the ebooks are sold at a cost of $10 most often. Sure, that's cheaper than a hardcover, but it's not cheaper than a paperback, and the paperback has all the booklike advantages of being disposable and loanable etc.

I know two folks with Kindle V1s, and they both love them. Obviously, it's a niche that can be exploited, and the "free" wireless download is a sweet way to deliver books. Might be the one thing that kept this from becoming the RocketBook 2008 edition.
