I don't need cute features like search or sound, for that I'd have the wall computer or the tablet (think Star Trek). What I want is to decide what I'm going to read, "plug" an empty or available "digibook" to the computer, and download "I Robot" to it in a reasonable time, so that I can take it to bed.
Searching is "cute?" Would sound be "cute" in a book that was meant to teach one a new language?
For that I'd use the tablet. Or the holo deck. I wouldn't need sound to amenize Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, for instance.
In any event, you'll get what you want (unless you're well over 80 already).
I'm counting on it :-)
Think!
Save the preaching, OK? We can always go backwards and you'll surely be able to keep the books (paper-style) you have.
I'm not preaching... that was not my intention. I'm not the first one with those ideas. Sci-Fi is full of it. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFDg3C1tTMYHG2NR9URAojDAJ0QwDqdyriRZNiajsBvnvpsqh0uYACfRgqm ssyoXdJjp3gTOCv7ej/akMo= =SlrU -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
