Just finished reading the article and disagree with the majority of what was written. I can't even begin to understand what he means by "ebooks need to be short". Why do they need to be short? I have about 16 ebooks on my PDA right now and I don't care if each one is 10,0000 pages long.

Also, I have absolutely no problems with my pda "providing a decent reading experience". Another point that needs to be elaborated.

As far as the price, I rarely ever pay over $5.00 for my ebooks at Fictionwise. Since I read a whole lot more now that I've started purchasing ebooks, I just signed up for their yearly discount plan.

And what happened to the number one reason why ebooks are great...The physcial aspect....the fact that a person can carry around many different titles.

Sounds like this was written by someone who hasn't fully researched all aspects of ebooks. Personally, I can't wait until we have the option of everything being electronic.
