I have personally seen one guy with an e-reader, about 2 years ago when I was on jury duty. He brought it with him to court every day. Other than that, I can't think of any others. Bruce,

As you point out there doesn't seem to be a lot of concern over the book's demise. I've owned a bookshop for over 3 years now (I say that to point out that I tend to notice bookish things) and I have yet to see 1 single ebook reader in person. In a city of 3 million you'd think I'd bump into one of the things. Bruce from the Bookshop Blog Along with the rest of the Book selling world we were discussing the Kindle at our blog.

Can you sue Mattel if your books get 'ripped' because of their advertising? Probably not. You know that whoever thought up that picture can't read very well. Congrats on Huck knowing the parts of books. He'll need it when he takes over your business. - Unless you get 'em all sold before then. ~~~~~~ HAW! HAW! Like any bookseller and book lover ever lets that happen. P.S. Good idea with the Legos. I don’t know. Can you sue Mattel if your books get ‘ripped’ because of their advertising?

Probably not.
