Toying with the Future of the Kindle!

A prominent local independent bookstore owner sent me an email just the other day explaining that book sales were undergoing a "temporary" lull over the introduction of a new "toy." She meant of course the Kindle as well as all e-readers and what she was intuiting is that said Kindles, et. al, are just a passing phase.

Is she kidding?

Does anyone really think Kindle and E-Readers are going to go away anytime soon or at all for that matter? Isn't this the same as saying the music industry has decided to give up downloads in order to go back to vinyl or 8-track tapes? Should we give up digital cable television for the old rabbit-eared reception broadcast over VHF waves? Maybe we should all hand in our personal computers for adding machines and slide rules?

For the rest of the story head on over to the Vox:
