[quote=Anonymous]My instinct also says real books (says another kindle owner). I like the tangible nature of books. With my e-reader, I can easily forget the name of the book I'm reading. I look at the list of books in the menu and can't remember which I've read, or the order of books in a series. I never know what page I'm on, just the percentage of the book I've finished. (At least once I've had a book end suddenly, then discovered there are tons of footnotes making up a huge part at the back.) I can't flip back easily (though the search function is helpful), and it's harder to glance ahead. All this may be related to the fact that I have a slightly older model kindle, but I know that's not all. In the end, I prefer to read from a book made of paper, and that's what I prefer for my kids, too. [/quote]
