[citation][nom]MDillenbeck[/nom]No, they stated that it exceeded hardcover. I doubt the kindle is outselling trade/paperback books.The only ebooks I have "bought" are the ones offered for free. (Do companies count these as "books sold"?) There are two reasons why I stick to free: 1) I don't want any company to have the right to pull my books off my shelf (like they can do with digital books that contact a remote DRM server) and 2) I have used a tablet PC for quite some time. They could have made a windows program for me to read eBooks, but instead said I needed to buy an overpriced dedicated system - heck, I don't use a dedicated DVD player anymore, why would I start using one for books?So what do I do? I use a digital camera and my tablet pc to get my un-DRMed eBooks for my own personal use. If they are plain text, I might use OCR also.[/citation]
Oops. And I was so careful to make sure I said 'hardcover' everywhere else in the story. Thanks!
