Have e-books turned a page?
Sure have. They are getting better and more books are being published in an e-book format. However the problem still remains about the readability. Its much easier and a lot cleaner to read out of a paper book than on screen. White background can burn your retinas out. They need to develop an easy to read font as well as displaying program. Don't get me wrong, e-books, especially tech manuals, can be a very good thing with a laptop onsite. Search for what you need in the book, perform required steps. Its all good.
