Plastic logic - I think the world is about to change..

I have for a long time been fan to the idea of getting rid of books.. I hate the waste of trees, space and sheer weight of a good library. I love the idea that I can take EVERY book I own, heck every book in the word with me where ever I go. Along comes the computer, seems like a good fit can store millions of books, pretty light weight (until you try to read a book on it that is), and man is it hard to concentrate on the text of a computer screen for the long periods needed to read an entire book.

Well today I believe I have seen the future..








This new invention looks like it will be a huge step towards what I am looking for, I will need to see battery life on such a thin device, it will need to stay charged for 8 hours minimum, the screen while easy to read should not be too bright as to give me headaches like the computer screen. The type size needs to be big enough for me not to squint and it needs to stay cool in my hand, I don't need third degree burn while trying to read a book or magazine or heck (this thing does it) read office documents off my computer.

All in all, I will be watching this device VERY closely and when it hits stores, I will start reading the reviews. I want one, I want one, I want one.. (as long as it lives up to all of my fantasy expectations that is)
