Chaz-I suspect most retail booksellers will regard e books as competition to their present market, and push them only with great reluctance. This certainly has been the case with BN, at least in my locality. Even if management likes them, attitudes will have to permeate down to the local level. As gorilla game investors we are primarily looking for mass market tornados, not early adaptors. I may buy one myself, but even the chasm is a long way off for e books. It's a bit difficult for me to find mass applications that are better electronically and yet not suitable directly to the www when the initial price of entry is $300. The college textbook market is promising . Professors will be drawn to the monetary and/or ego benefits of having their own textbook.I regard e books as something that will be big eventually, but the time span involved is too long to consider e- books as anything except lagniappe to the GMST story.
