I like the idea of putting thousands of books(don't know if that's the actual number, was told so by a friend) onto a single e-reader and being able to take them every where I go. However, as posted by so many others, there's too much to love about an actual book for me to get one. One not posted before: every book seems to have it's own character, something not easily potrayed through an e-reader. The older the book - the more character it seems to have. Of course, this is only a projection, but still, it makes books that much more enjoyable.

And quite honestly, the idea of getting to walk into a room every day and just see walls of books is quite awesome.
