When I study using electronic textbooks my efficiency decreases by 99%. But that's just me.

:O

No way!! I can flip through a textbook way faster that navigating e books.

Also, I have a tendency to be easily distracted by VCE Notes and mIRC

Reading e-books for extended periods of time hurts my eyes :(

plus then I can't read on the bus, which is like 3 hours wasted every day

Just start rolling out those eBook readers (but versions that could read PDFs and format them properly of course) and that should solve that problem =P It'd be nice carrying all your textbooks in something that small...

Hmm when the technology matures it could be okay. But it's probably too early...
