Actually, I never thought I'd like eBooks. But Mr. ShyElf got a Kindle for Christmas last year - he promptly gave it to me since I am in the unfortunate position of having to spend a lot of time in doctor's waiting rooms. It turns out that I have grown to love *my* Kindle. It fits in my purse, so I've always got a book to read when I'm stuck waiting.
ShyElf The Younger doesn't like the idea of an eBook. One night I was settling down to read before going to sleep and discovered I needed to charge my Kindle and I heard from her bedroom - "that would never happen with a 'real' book"! 
Cheers!
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
