i too love the smell of an old book, and there is just something wonderful about holding a tangible object in your hand, something u can feel and smell. i mean, ipods, computers, etc are tangible, but cut the power and they are useless. all u need to power on a book is light and literacy. i am legally blind, and reading can be painful for me with all the eye strain, but i still love to read. i have used audiobooks, but there is jut nothing like holding a book in your hand and reading. i have even begun learning Braille. if the time comes when i can no longer see the pages, i can still feel the words. literacy is so important and i run into so many people who simply can't read. i mean, they can make out some words, and read a little, but the reading level is so low, it is sad. they have missed out on so much. long live the written word!
