Either way Nintendo has more than enough maneuvering room right now to try it.

Yeah it is easier than carrying around a big stack of books, but to be honest it never poses much of a problem. And I really can't imagine it being much fun to read a whole book off a screen, especially small one.

It may work well with manga and comics but to be honest I don't read that sort of thing so I'll take your word for it.

How are digital books anyway? Supposedly you can't comprehend as much reading from a screen as you could with actually reading a book. Or at least, that's what they tell me at my classes.

they are lying illegalpaladin.

try for yourself

goto: http://www.baen.com/library/

and read a book online....

yes they are all sci-fi/fantasy here but personally i'd recommend

march upcountry or on basilisk station or wizard's bane.

and judge for yourself...

or if you are feeling like spending money on an e-book

http://www.webscription.net

again mostly sci-fi/fantasy but the books are decently priced...i've bought over 1000 dollars worth of ebooks
