I will be watching early 2010 to see which reader emerges out front. I will also read with interest the customer ratings. The prettier graphic user interface doesn't always get the best return-on-investment. Which early design features are going to separate the leading reader from the pack? Will there be a difference in user psychological demographics and will publishers need a multi-neural strategy? Will the leading digital reader be passive ... or will it be 'engaging'?
Ahh ... the possibilities!
Simple wireframe diagrams and fancy html + css won't cut it. The key will be to see if Thomas Nelson can transition out of static digital design to more interactive (engaging) book design! You will have to add superstar digital designers to your list of superstar authors!
I know you can do it! Now, ready, set ... go!

Kindle, Nook, or SI Tablet ...

I am an avid reader. I read about 5 books a week, usually from cover to cover.

I am dual-careered. In psychotherapy, my work evolves with advances in brain research and scientific books are critical. I am also a User Experience (UX) designer and am always canvassing the digital information architecture of websites, software, mobile applications, and gadgets to watch human factor trends. (I do read an occasional inspirational book for my own nourishment, hence my admiration of publishers like Thomas Nelson and Zondervan.)

Books going digital is a great delight! I am hoping a digital reader will aid in keeping my skillsets cutting edge but I'm not sure how I feel about a digital reader and the more "limbic", or emotional reading I do.
