Hello Jean and everyone I like being able to share books, usually not possible with e-versions as they want everyone to buy their own copy. When I've read something light, it increases the value for me if I can pass the book along. I bought my Kobo purely so I could borrow e-books from my local library online - because of driving distance and the trouble it took to return paper books within the borrowing limit I was for quite awhile, an infrequent customer. The e-book borrows simply vanish when time's up. The library embraces reading in all dimensions and will loan the devices also.
I like paper books, and I like the option of virtual books. There are pluses and minuses to both! Per Jean's remark about browsing, one can, and it is fun, until the thing needs re-charging...
