You can have my regular ink and paper books when you pry them from my cold, dead hands. Oh, and Sony makes that.

Aye, I'll second that. I've never finished an ebook on my lappy or pocket PC. Now I'm sure that epaper is much more legible and less fuss than either of them, but a real paper book is a particular pleasure, whether its a lush coffee table jobbie with varnished pages and rich colour illustrations or a shitey novel to stick in your hip pocket.

I've seen adverts (in Canada at least) for pre-pay credit cards. If they're sensible they might have an online top-up service? When I get back I can find out more...

Audiobooks, though. You can stick them on an iPod and "read" them anywhere, and even leave your eyes free for other stuff like women's legs. That's how I read Crime and Punishment. It turned out Raskolnikov did it.

I agree, I spend much time driving around london for my job.
Getting stuck in traffic aint a problem if you are listening to an audiobook.

 

My archos has a bookmark feature for audio or video files.
Works a treat.

 

If anybody is interested in Audiobooks or The Teaching Company Lectures
I have a vast collection, even more extensive than my stupid ringtones collectioni.

 

Currently just finished the 2nd Eragon book, have to say i'm extreamly impressed with the story, aint seen the film yet but the unabridge audiobook kinda makes me not want to.

I agree I also aint finished an ebook on my pdas.

 

However the screen on this is very very very easy to read, it genuinely looks like paper, the words look like they have been printed, it really is that good.

 

Also fantastic to be able to carry it around with me where ever I go. It's about the height of a paperback book but is much much thiner about 1cm thick.

 

Ultra portable.

 

Next london meat if you come along I will bring it with and you can pass judgement

I agree with Rendlibobs about audiobooks. I'd certainly like to see an e-book thang in the flesh.

Me has just finished that book also and whilst I am enjoying the series it's very, very cliched and utterly predictable.
I have not seen the film either, but from the looks of the film photos that were in the middle of the tie-in paperback release I read it looks wank!

My Garmin GPS does audiobooks. And MP3s. And hands-free. I love it. More than my kids.
