Wow , Amazon Kindle tagad ir iespējams iegādāties latviešiem (mēs esam civilizēti !)
Es visiem rekomendēju e-grāmatu lasītājus, jo vismaz man tas palīdz saudzēt acis un papīru. (Kādreiz teica, ka datori būs tie, kas palīdzēs saglābt "kokus", jo visa informācija būs digitāli pieejama. Diemžēl izskatās, ka tas ir tikai palielinājis izmantoto papīra daudzumu, jo ir pieejams tik daudz info, ko noteikti vajag izdrukāt un nolikt stūrī. Bet e-grāmatu lasītāji varētu veikt šo koku glābšanas uzdevumu, jo hm.. es šosemestr neesmu izdrukājusi nevienu e-grāmatu, ko pasniedzēji laipni piedāvā pdf formātā (pirms dažiem gadiem bija jāiet pie sekretāres, jāpaņem grāmatas kopija, jāiet uz kopētavu un pašam jānokopē), jo šajos gados nekas nav mainījies - latviešu studenti joprojām nevar atļauties grāmatu par $50-$100. :) Es neko neesmu rakstījusi. yo!
Bet ar Kindle jāuzmanās - viņi vienreiz Dzīvnieku Fermu izdzēsa no lietotāju, kuri bija to jau nopirkuši, ierīcēm. Izrādījās kaut kas ar autortiesībām nebija kārtībā. Tas tāds WDF.
