More on the Kindle

[jennythereader]

The Kindle is better than paper books because:
- easier to carry
- completely searchable
- get more titles instantly
- add your own footnotes and highlights, which are as searchable as the text itself
- 2G of memory, which translates to approx 1500 books

Paper books are better than the Kindle (or other ebooks) because:
- you can't get an ebook autographed
- you can't loan a friend an ebook
- you can't sell an ebook to a used bookstore when you're done with it

But we authors love thinking of the money you've spent, and we all thank you. :)

I'm patiently waiting for Threshold so I can see how much more you cna torment Joe Buckley without killing him. I'll also take a look at Grand Central Arena when it hit's webscriptions, but I'm not promising to buy it at this point.

You will see Grand Central Arena before you see Threshold, unless Toni in doing a final read-through of GCA runs into a deal-breaker problem that makes me have to rewrite from scratch.

Grand Central Arena is the best thing he's done.

So far.
