Well, I'll have to wait with my "book/E-book" picture, which I have made yesterday. :-)
Great entry. I like the B&W.

Wow! Fantastic comparison!

As a bibliophile, serious collector of books, lover of marginalia, and avid user of glossaries and indices I must go with the paper version. Plus it is unlikely that most of the books I read will ever be available on the kindle. Still, an interesting comparison and a very good image.

Clever justaposition here.

I like your thinking here Frank, but I'm not sure I like the idea of the Kindle; I mean to me, a book should be handled and felt and smelt, its very physicality is part of the reading experience. I can't imagine getting the same experience from a piece if (very clever) plastic and metal...maybe I'm just a Luddite dinosaur :o))

Nice juxtaposition there, definatley old and new, and both likely to be around for a while.
