Most people will have a hard time leaving behind the advantages of paper books and newspapers (e.g. feel, smell, ease of use, its personal/identifiable feeling). However, the benefits of reading e-books through reading interfaces like Kindle (which will continue to evolve to make it more comfortable to use and gentle to the eye) will largely outweigh the benefits of paper prints, and ultimately eradicate the romance of most people with the traditional form of reading.
E-books will ultimately offer:
1) Download at any time and place
2) Search for keywords and take citations in a glimpse
3) Environmentally friendly
4) Instant Dictionary reference
5) Instant sharing with others of comments and citations
6) cross referencing with other books and online resources
7) much more....
