This all started because you said everyone needed to get on board with a full transition from print to electronic media. I disagreed with that assertion and made a few points about why I prefer print and think it will continue to be printed. I have said from the beginning that my displeasure with e-readers is 1) they are less comfortable for me to use, 2) they are slower for me to use, and 3) I find books more aesthetically and sensually pleasing. I admit I may have been wrong about the weight of e-readers and even battery life (but we do agree, yes, that books have a longer battery life than the best e-reader?). But those are really secondary considerations to the aforementioned three things which I have been saying all along and which apply to tablets and readers alike if we want to be pedantic about the distinction.</blockquote>
