I'd quite like to write it on the Kindle itself, but that might be pushing things too far... I'm going to Manchester in a week and am gutted I won't get it in time to take it with me.

I still read paper books as well, but I reckon about half of my book reading this year has been electronic. I've got a mixture of new and very old books on the Reader, having downloaded a lot of classics that I've never read from sites like <a href="http://www.gutenberg.org/" rel="nofollow">Project Gutenberg</a>. I don't know about the future of dead tree books. It's easy to imagine everything going electronic like music and photography, but I think there'll be strong demand for printed material for a few years yet.
