BookLocker I agree that the knapsack may be a thing of the past. The technology seems fantastic, especially for expensive textbooks that get beaten up and have to be replaced. Nonetheless, don't see kindergartners going to school with a USB drive and a lunch bucket, nor do I see them logging into a computer at home to do their fingerpainting. In any case, huge possibilities here for more expensive textbooks like those I purchased in medical school. Another option, however, is CD-ROMs. I have purchased several texts on CD-ROM with access codes. Even cheaper would be ROM cards like MMC that are now used to package video games, maps and the like.
