E-BOOKS

Several new e-book readers and a growing library of digital books have created a growing market for E-books. Fans rave about accessibility and portability. Traditionalists scorn the experience, which they say can never match the cheap-to-give-away and annotation-friendly paperback. A glut of articles and blog postings are available to help readers select from among the devices and manage their e-libraries.
