I cannot imagine paying $10 for the "joy" of reading on a cell phone!
fortunately, nobody will be forcing you to do that... regardless, _lots_ of people have read _lots_ of books on screens (1) which were far and away much smaller than the iphone screen, and (2) which had much lower resolution than the iphone screen. *** this discussion has gone on too long already. sooner or later we'll all be carrying around full-blown computers in our pocket that we use to communicate with the world at large. some will have smaller screens, others will have larger screens, but we'll read off all of them, at least when we're not conversing with them via the verbal interface. (it is, after all, a phone, right?) and then we will be able to finally put down this stupid discussion. in the meantime, it's already gone on far too long. -bowerbird p.s. the ironic thing is, in the end, both sides will claim that _they_ were the side which was right all along. pretty funny. ************** Recession-proof vacation ideas.
