Reading from any ebook reader just screws me eyes up; it has to be a proper book for me. It just seems to be very wrong reading a 18th or 19th century piece of literature on an electronic toy.

I haven't read a "tree" book since I got my first Palm (3xe) 5 years ago. Since then, I've read 4-5 books a month and just love the freedom of the ebook experience. Stuck in traffic? No prob. Boring meeting at work? I'm good. Hate what I'm reading? I've got 50 other books on the card. Love, love, love it. My Treo never leaves my side so, ergo, I'm always up for a few pages.
