Many, even most maybe, undergraduate students pay for textbooks on financial aid and scholarships which are disbursed through the institutions including pre-payed accounts at the bookstores; not alway in cash. I'm assuming the participating colleges are looking at this. Otherwise, this is only good for grad school, the smallest part of the textbook realm The more interesting text book problem arrises from the Kindle’s tie to the individual owner, not the institution.

His position that he is a natural born citizen is absolutely indefensible. Just the fact his "Certification of Live BIrth" was forged, even if it is a facsimile, is a crime. What is becoming of our country? More than 50% of the people in the U.S. don't pay taxes. This country is turning into shit. Shit and corruption.

I had to lug 6 extra pounds on my back for 2 years back and forth on a plane to Chicago from TX. I had hoped that Plastic Logic would save me given that my notes were already being published in PDF but the text books were the heaviest items. Where was this 2 years ago when I was starting my MBA.

Putting a touch screen on a front lit display is actually a very difficult technical issue. The touch screen flim blocks some light, and since the display is front lit, it blocks some going in, and some coming out. The only company currently making a "touchscreen" e-reader is www.irextechnologies.com. I put touchscreen in quotes because it's a Wacom tablet stylus system. It's more expensive, but avoids the film issue. It is great for taking notes on the reader though. The Kindle 2 is not a touch screen.

I hope developers of the planned new devices read your post. Also, for purposes of citing quotes, e-readers should retain, somehow, the pagination scheme of the printed item. Currently, not all e-readers do. Good point. I hope developers of the planned new devices read your post.
