micro, I have no experience with them, but I was talking to a guy using one in a waiting room. He said he'd never go back. I said I don't think I could get into it, since I use a highlighter, underline and comment. He said you can do that on his ipad. I still doubt I could do it, although a full text search is desirable when looking back for something. Another advantage, a lot of physical space can be reclaimed. However, signed copies are nice.

Benjamin Franklin, The First American
by H.W. Brands

was an excellent read and insight into Benjamin Franklin and his life.

A very fascinating and full life he lived. We the people owe much to him.

I will read more about Mr. Franklin later as soon as I get done reading about Jefferson and Washington and Adams, to name only a few.

It is great to read about the lives and principles of the early founders of our nation.

Only wish I had more time than I do to spend reading.

Anybody here use one of those E-readers?

If so, do you like using it to read or do you find you prefer the actual book.

I received a 7 inch tablet reader for Christmas that also web surfs and does email and stuff but I don't know if I can get accustomed to reading such small print.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,

micro...
