I'm one of them archaic people - I like books on paper. I buy a lot of them, and I normally have more than one on the go at a time.
So an electronic device that emulates many of the good points of a book, while storing a lot of information that I can search on, would absolutely rock my world.
My requirements are simple - it has to have more storage than I can use, getting books on and off has to be easy, it has to be low on battery/power use, light enough to be comfortably portable, at least as comfortable on the eyes as ink-on-paper, and sufficiently resiliant to no break the first time I drop it on the couch, then sit on it.
is that too much to ask?
