    What is wrong with paper after all? It's much more enjoyable thumbing through a book than holding a piece of plastic/aluminium for hours on end.

    I did mention this to Clive, but he'd already spent a lot of time in Photoshop making that picture :p

    So now we can make jokes about it being an over-sized iPod Touch AND an under-sized iPad?

    Just out! The first pictures of the first two iPhoaoads. It's an iPhoaoad because they weren't sure whether to call it iPad or iPod or iPhone, and it has oaoa because they now have multi-threading!!

    [​IMG]

    In other news, Steve Jobs lost a finger or two in the manufacturing process of the iPhoaoad. RIP Steve Jobs' pinkie.

    In 3 years time I will laugh at this comment, just like I laugh at people who say "whats the point of an MP3 player, just use a CD player instead". The idea of taking a single eReader on holiday, or on the train, knowing that you have your whole library to choose from seems like a brilliant idea.
    I still feel that no-one has developed the perfect eReader yet though. I am waiting for e-ink, touch screen, online access and the ability to view e-magazines as well as ebooks. I will not consider the ipad, regardless of its size and weight, because the most important thing about reading is that it should be fun. And 2 hours of having your retina's burnt out while angling the damn thing away from the sun doesn't sound like fun to me.

    I've yet to find a screen I prefer to read compared to paper.

    When it comes to large blocks of text anyway.

    I still buy CDs. I just like them. Of course I rip them into digital formats, but I like holding a physical CD in my hands. Why do you think there are so many CD shops still in business?
