I'm curious what your thoughts are. With DRM free titles from pragmatic programmers, etc. Im thinking about buying one. Only if the PDF support enables it to display tables properly. One portable device that enables me to carry around a ton of books for $500 doesnt sound like a bad idea to me.
I don't have enough karma to create a poll, but with the upcoming movie releases of "Transcendent Man" and "The Singularity is Near" along with recent write-ups in WSJ, Time, etc. I think the mass population is starting to get doses of Kurzweil's vision of Singularity. I am currently reading 1999's "Age of Spiritual Machines" and was wondering what you guys think of his vision.. I for one believe his claims are plausible though a bit over optimistic even with exponential growth. Do you think we will see the next evolution of mankind as he describes it? Do you think hes gone off his rocker in old age? Im interested in your thoughts!
