What's more, Franklin Electronics is soon to launch a handheld gadget that combines Microsoft Reader with the ability to play audio books and MP3 music.
More impressive is the e-reader's ability to learn your reading speed and give you information on how long it will take you to finish a chapter, or the entire book.
In addition, e-books will let us access a single chapter or even a single page, while the ability to provide regular updates will enable an ongoing relationship with the reader, especially in many nonfiction subjects.
