“the Looker on the subway can’t go by the title on an e-cover”
Good point – I was standing outside a shopping centre earlier this year, reading a childrens book on my Treo 650. The book was something I read as a 10-year-old, and I’m sure I would have got a lot of strange glances had I been reading a P-book instead.
(Suddenly the penny drops. Is that why erotica ebooks are supposedly doing big business?)
