As e-readers grow in popularity, some people are already missing the days when it was easy to tell what book a person was reading in public. Here author Larry Dorfman shows that there is plenty of opportunity to use e-books as a way to break the ice.
1. Think your Kindle is compatible with my PSP?
2. The light from that Kobo doesn't really do justice to your face.
3. There are days when all I want to do is stay in bed and download.
4. I only Nook on the subway.
5. Mine can really take a charge--MasterCard or Visa.
6. I'm definitely starting Wuthering Heights. Right after A Game of Thrones and Lost Tribe of the Sith #1.
7. How many books do you have in there? A few dozen? Gonna start to get pretty heavy soon?
8. I bought a camouflage cover for my Nook. Now I can't find it.
9. Any way I can get high-speed access?
10. Your iPad or mine?
