eBooks – The Future of Books?

How will the electronic book impact on the future of books? Will it simply provide information in another format, like the difference between a paperback and hardback, or will it significantly change the way information is presented, read and stored? The presentation will include a practical demonstration of an eBook as well as exploring current trends and the implications for the future of the "traditional" book.
