One of these days, an e-book will be marketed that really does the trick. I don't know if this is the one. But I look forward to the day when school children carry a single "book" and can examine their Social Studies textbook, Math textbook, Dictionary, Language Arts, and other books, all with one button. No more backpacks. No more aching backs.

School Systems are likely to mandate the use of a good e-book at some point. There's money to be made here, and so it will come to pass.

I would love to have everything on an e-book if it worked well.

This one is unique in that you can subscribe to newspapers and magazines and they will be automatically downloaded. Of course, among the few magazines available this way are The Nation and Salon! I sent an email to National Review suggesting they get on board so we have some balance.

It will also download certain blogs, and I was glad to see Michelle Malkin on the list.
