Mag+ Puts E-Readers to Shame

E-books have been popping in and out of stores around this time. I have been wanting one for Christmas, specifically the Touch edition of the Sony E-Reader, however I checked that off my list. But I've been thinking lately that, ebooks kind of held back on us. We are so used to colored HD screens, and what do they give us? They give us a Black and White screen. This is one of my ten reasons why I didn't want it anymore. As a student, I carry textbooks and my laptop around the campus. I carry I huge bag to hold all those things with my little fragile frame, and it’s very tiring. So I thought maybe, I can use an e reader to replace all my textbooks and buy e-books instead, however there aren’t many e-book websites yet, at least not for textbooks.

Although there's no working prototype of Mag+ yet, the concept of this device could be a game changer. Imagine having no more magazines laying around the house, or newspapers just being stored in the garage. Subscriptions can be made through the Mag+, wehich makes it cheaper, because there're no paper to be wasted. All we need is more e-book, e-mags, e-textbooks, and e-newspaper suppliers.
