Hey Everyone, Of course this all depends on if Kindle can provide enough college textbooks that are done in a Kindle friendly format. Now, If they do manage to do all this without any glitches,you can begin to see why,a lot of these publishers of College textbooks are biting there nails right now.
From the days I was attending college at Redrocks,I remember all to well,having to haul around a bunch of texts books " and gosh forbid I should lose one $$!" Anyway, I still have a screwed up shoulder which I conclude came from all that running around from class to class. " It's definitly, a much better time to grow up now than it was back then" IMHO!
Today, you have some pretty tech savy kids who are getting sick of having to pay the outrageous price on textbooks, and finding other means to get what they need. ( although some of these means may not be all together legal) For example: Scanning a textbook and placing them on bittorrents in mass amounts.
At the time of this post, there are plenty of angry proffessors that are seeking legal action to put a stop to these torrents. "How far they will actually get with that,leaves something to be desired."
Well, that's it for me right now...I plan on staying on the legal side of things "Karma and all" besides that at least I don't have to worry to much about my sons future with textbooks he's a "legal Begal himself" I'm proud to say. One thing I definitely know is he won't have a trick shoulder like his old man! I thank god technology has finally caught up for his generation.
