I have one thing to add to the downside of e-readers slide - they don't have the lovely smell of books and if you buy them second hand they don't have the last persons scrawled notes in them.
I like this about books.
yes the tactile side of books as an object is something we probably take for granted. And the aging look of a book that gets some use, when its lent around.
