Sammy Perlmutter: An Innovation Even Bigger Than eBooks

eReaders, don't approach the level of invention or edification that the wordless book does. Are eBooks changing the way we read stories, or are they merely changing the way we receive them?

I like my e-reader (Nook), but don't use it for all reading. I tend to use online news sites for fresh news, as opposed to day old news. I tend to read most non-fiction in hardover, and tend to use the e-reader for fiction. However, if I have started a book on my e-reader, and like it enough, I will probably purchase the hardcover version to add it to my home collection. The e-reader is great for travel, but nothing feels like a book in my hand except a book in my hand.

Instead of such a simple statement, that you know is going to garner at lest one reply (me), why not go ahead and state what you don't like about e-readers?
