And this is mainly in reference to ATM cards, which generally don't have that protection, unless that's changing now with ATM cards also being credit cards...
The Sony reader looks interesting but it doesn't have search?!?!?! I mean to me that's the whole point of ebooks. Also it'd be nice to have a good way to create an index/glossary, especially when you're reading something like Jordan where he likes to mention characters you read about 10 years ago.
One day late at work I crossed the room and reached for my Palm Vx. Zap, big shock. Worried about the Palm, I check it out and everything seems to be working ok. The next morning I slip it in the cradle and start my normal sync. Surprise! It can't establish communication. I switch to the other serial port, change the software setting and everything works. Change back and still nothing...the serial port is dead. It's at this point I remember the big shock the night before. Incidentally, it's an Asus motherboard that now has a dead serial port.
