Books are not dead...

Despite the fact that I spend hours working on the internet each day, I still prefer to read books the old fashion way instead of online or through one of the e-book readers. Not just when I travel, but when I'm trying to wind down at night, there is something more relaxing in reading from the actual pages rather than from a backlit source. What's also interesting about travel is you can read a book during take offs and landings, but the airlines make you shut off any electronic device, a gentleman sitting next to me on a recent flight was surprised when the flight attendant informed him he had to shut his iBook down.
