I love my Kindle, I do prefer it over a actual book now. So much easier to transport and hold so much content, I am now spoiled having my own personal library with me when ever I want. :D

I do prefer real books however I have gotten pretty used to reading articles and smaller reports online. I think it would just take time for me to adapt if I wanted but I'm not in a big hurry to get there. =)

I think I will always prefer a real book....less stressful to the eyes.  My sister has an ebook and loves it.  I have gotten into audiobooks lately for listening when doing my chores.  Libraries are great sources for all of the above and it doesn't cost anything!  Check it out. Literally.

I have a Nook, and I love it.  I take it with me when ever we travel.  It beats carrying around several books at once.  All of my magazines go right to my Nook every month.  But when I am home, I enjoy a real book, only because sometimes I am just to cheap to buy a new book, so I get it from the library.

I am really drawn to the idea of an electronic reader. It has the conviences of getting books instantly, sharing book and not hving to go to the book store or a library. The draw back  I find is that, unlike a physical book, you cannot look at 2 pages -that are not in consecutive order - at a time. I believe that this would make coursework very difficult. I usually have a text open to one page, comparing it to another page that is not next to it.  :cat:
