[QUOTE="Callahan09, post: 6286547, member: 6721803"] Exactly where I am in my thinking. I do most of my narrative reading on the train during my commute (unless a book gets me so hooked I keep reading after I get home). Also ebooks are easy to demo a sample off in just a few seconds search and download time, the buying price is usually cheaper outside of finding a decent used copy at the right price, and it also keeps track of my bookmarks, notes, and highlights in the digital format. Finally, my shelf space at home is at a serious premium right now and so the honest to goodness bigger factor limiting my purchasing decisions is simply how worthy the book is of occupying a coveted spot on the shelf. And I also agree about source books... Still can't do them digitally. I think this is an issue with all reference books as a general rule. What it is, is that you have to page jump a lot and that is simply slower in digital format right now. Someday it may improve and digital could be just as quick and smooth to page jump and browse as paper is, but until that day that kinda of books need to be paper for me. [/QUOTE]
