Why eBook Readers Are So Cool

Technology Evangelist Ben Higginbotham appears on Twin Cities Live, discussing eReaders and why they are so cool. The Sony Reader, the iRex Iliad, and the Amazon Kindle all make an appearance.



I really like the cellular connectivity of the Amazon Kindle, but the size and style of Sony's eReader really shines in comparison to the others in this video.

Speaking of Sony, not only are they having a big announcement about their eReader next month, they are also starting to sell them at Target.

You know you want one...the idea of the ebook reader is whispering in your ear...

I still vote for the Kindle...unless Sony or someone else matches the cellular connectivity.

If Amazon is not coming out with a new Kindle for this year, then I say go for the Kindle.

Luke...give in to the darkside...the side of spending more money...bwahahaaahaaha...

Actually, there are worse things than surrendering to the temptation to make reading more accessible...
