Maybe I am misunderstanding Dan Messer, but I think he is talking about
e-book readers, not e-books themselves. I would consider e-books to be the
electronic file not the display device. Given that, I pretty much agree
with him except that new devices such as the Compaq iPAQ H3670 Pocket PC
does an excellent job of displaying an e-book using the Microsoft Reader to
view e-books. The device is expensive (over $600) but there are less
expensive versions available. I probably would not try to bounce the one I
am trying against the concrete though.
