The future of the book – Possible or Probable

This is an interesting videos from Editis, a French publisher on the future of the book. Its a bit long, but worth a watch. Now I don’t speak any French but here is what I *think* I saw happening

• scanning barcodes of book at a traditional bookstore to purchase them on the ebook reader
• touchscreen
• interactive
• color
• write on the books with a stylus
• multimedia content – the guide books
• sharing copies from one ereader to the next
• email
• magazines
• blogs
• books
• music

If this were available today I’d buy one right now.
