I think he's trying to turn it into a book, which would be ironic.<br /><br />I'm conflicted about the ebook issue. I can see non-fluorescent devices like the Kindle being much more like "real" books because of the lack of glare. And the ability to increase font size is going to be very appealing for many people (myself included), especially given the crappy selection of large-print books. So on a pragmatic, case by case basis I can see myself adopting a Kindle or eReader in a year or two, once the screens get a bit bigger (rumoured this Christmas for Amazon). But the prospect of a book being tied to a specific vendor-controlled device would be terrible for the publishing world. <br /><br />Interesting times.tom s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02843516091868469912noreply@blogger.com
