资源简介
A
I read the same novel in paperback and on the iPad.
    One thing I love about e­books on the iPad is the in­text dictionary look­up feature. This is something the iPad will always have as an advantage over traditional paperbacks. I sometimes come across a word I don't know while reading. It's much handier to be able to look up the word on the same screen as the text than to have to grab a dictionary or my iPhone to look it up while I am reading a paperback.
    However, when it comes to actually reading the book, the iPad’s advantages as a medium for reading begin to pale. The iPad is relatively heavy in my hands and the swiping and tapping to turn a page soon become boring. Another big issue I have with the iPad is that I always find myself trying to get away to check an e­mail, explore the web, or look for another book on the iBookstore.
    Living in London, as most people do, I take the tube, or the subway. Forget about resting your iPad on your lap to read, because your knees get bumped too much from constant flow of people entering and leaving the train. Your only option is to “seize” your iPad in your hands. This is where a huge drawback of the iPad becomes apparent. When I read a paperback on the subway, not once will I worry about my paperback. A $7 paperback book is a pretty low target for a thief. A $500 iPad, on the other hand, is a prime theft material. The reading e xperience goes down dramatically when you have to keep an eye on the people walking past you.
    After finishing my reading of the novel on both mediums —the iPad and the paperback — I am more convinced than ever that the iPad and its iBookstore will not replace traditional print editions. Unlike MP3s that replaced CDs,the original medium for the novel is still the superior one in both form and functions. I use iBookstore now to browse for books and use the “Get Sample” feature to explore the first few chapters. If I like what I read, I'll purchase the print edition from Amazon or at my local bookseller.
