You do realise that your days of leaving the house are almost over, right?

Another question: where's the beverage cup holder?

Priced like a netbook, more portable than a laptop, easier to read than a phone.
You forgot lighter than a stone tablet (plus you don't have to learn cuneiform).
I find this ultrasegmentation of the computing device market a little insane. This thing doesn't make phone calls, right? And why not? It's like they all want to be a bit of everything, but not all of everything, because god forbid you shouldn't have to buy at least five different ultraportable devices. Which then taken all together make a bundle, of course.

'm super-comfortable reading off a screen and underwhelmed by the Kindle electronic-ink look.
Can you go to sleep after a prolonged session of reading off a computer screen? I sure can't, and I shall insist that e-books be measured on whether or not they can be read in bed.
I was actually impressed with a Kindle clone I saw in Italy last year. I thought it was off when it was actually on - very cool.

There also seem to be four (that's 4!) Ayn Rand in the top ten on the RL, and none (which as my 4 year old pointed out once, is exactly the same as zero) on the BL.
Aren't you glad we have gatekeepers so we don't have to see Rand at the top of any semi-official greatest books of all time list or on academic syllabi?
