    I don’t like the fact that it has two displays. It’s unnecessary and makes it thicker and heavier.

        Books are made like this because it’s impossible to make them any other way, but a digital device can have just one “page” since you read one page at time like Kindles and Kobos

          The other option is a scroll. historicaly I’m told a book was always a scroll and the factor we now call a book was a codex. (I don’t know how to verify this)

        Go old school and have it recreate a scroll. Really, not having to shift your head/eyes when reading is a plus with r-readers.

        Nevermind the fact most readers and tablets come -with- a cover … So its almost like a book anyway. Which people fold behind the page. Like a book. What was that extra screen doing again?
