So far one of the best things about reading on an electronic device is
that long books don't feel so long. You don't have the constant visual
+ tactile reminder that there is more ahead of you than behind.

My only problem with using the iPad is that I like to fall asleep
while reading and that's why my iPad has a cracked screen. Still works
though.
