I saw it, but it's not worth it to me. $400 for an item with a 200 book capacity? I read about that much a year, for heavens sake, and I don't throw anyway my books. So what happens next? Buy another one? And what about the books Amazon does not carry? Call me when they can hold up to 10,000 at a time. Then we'll talk.
In the meantime, I will be working diligently to get an ipod at some point. But books trump music to me, and there are so many books that I am lusting after that, frankly, I'll continue buying stuff on itunes and burning them to cds. On the good side, what that means is that by the time I actually get around to buying an ipod, they'll probably be able to hold 100,000 songs in total. And, maybe, just maybe, they'll come in colour. I am sick and tired of black and white, Mr. Jobs. How about green, red, purple, yellow, like the Nanos. And speaking of colour, its way past time for laptops to step into the colour revolution.
On another note, who in god's name okayed this as cover art?http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/customer-images/1934531014/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_0/102-2944360-6827308?ie=UTF8&index=0#gallery
Mother of GOD, the hideousness of it all!
This version is much better http://www.loose-id.net/detail.aspx?ID=607, although they only seem to have gotten around to having it in ebook format. Which is a shame. I really like the series though, so I got over my dislike of the ebook format and got all three mysteries. But I still want it in deadtree format.With that luverly piccy from http://www.loose-id.net/, thank you very much.
Speaking of loose-id, I need to get this book :http://www.loose-id.net/detail.aspx?ID=501 Rushing Towards Perfection, by Mya
