    I'm packing a suitcase and going to New Zealand to read lots of books. I wouldn't be caught dead with an e-book. There something satisfying about the feel of turning pages, the scent of paper, and generally appearing more intellectual than people around you who are not reading books at that moment.

    @valkilmerisawful: I love books. I love the way they feel, I love the way they smell, I love cracking open a crisp new one nearly as much as I love returning to an old one and reliving the hours I've shared with it.

    Nothing will ever replace paper books.

    I also love my e-book reader. it lets me enjoy reading in a completely different way than I used to.

    I guess the way I look at it, just because you bought an mp3 player, you didn't stop enjoying your vinyls.

    Yes. The ability to "squirt" to another owner. That will help B&N overcome the Kindle's lead.

    Matt, why lie to the poor plebes? Must you give them false hope? Must you fabricate some kind of dream world for them? Isn't internet porn enough?

    If Amazon can do this, it'll be the best thing to boost not only their ebook sales, but also their sales of the Kindle. I think most folks who might try downloading a book on their phone would quickly realize that epaper is a much better way of reading.

    Ok this is seriously off topic but not sure where to ask.. was there not an article last night on Giz about Lego and Battle Tech? Did it get pulled? Or am I losing my mind?

    @Reapman: Good news! You're not losing your mind, as far as we can tell anyways.


    Yes the article in question slipped into the vast darkness of the interwebs and is no more. We should all observe a minute of silence for our MIA Lego Mech comrades..

    If Dorothy Parker weren't dead, she'd have some witty boozy comment to make about how she might as well be.
