e-books

I'm beginning to really take a likeing to e-books. I've bought several books from Peanut Press and I've been very satisfied so far. I'm still a little shy about paying the same amount for a new release in e-format as I am for a paperback or a hardback, mainly due to the fact that I can always take these to a used bookstore for trade while that isn't possible with an e-book, but I'm very willing to pay the four or five dollars for the out-of-print books that are so common in e-format. I'm glad to see that Seybold Seminars is holding a one-day event dedicated to e-books. Hopefully we will see more of these and a commonsense approach to commercial publishing in electronic format will develop.
