An interesting day especially the discussion of Sara Lloyd's Book Publishers Manifesto. I can't help but feel that certain publishers, companies and areas of the media are missing the point with talk of e-book readers - and this was mentioned in the discussion. I cannot see myself ever buying an e reader. Books are not like music. While you may need hundreds of songs to listen on the go in one day i doubt many people would need access to more than a few books. The only way you would is for academic or research purposes. If that's the case then there is a device which can already provide this service and extra functions in the form of access to the web. It's called a laptop.
