The Fire of Torah?

The newest version of the Kindle seems to going after the education textbook market. This is beginning the discussion among publishers as to what happens if and when e-books take over. Is this good for textbooks? What about for Seforim? One thing Seforim will always have on their side is the Shabbos factor. The Kindle can't help you do Chazara on Shabbos for your test on Monday. Should we embrace the new technology.

Personally, I hate reading off of a computer screen (yes, I know that's ironic). I also hate when kids Daven from their iPhones particularly because I'm not always sure that they are looking at the text of their Siddur.
