14 years ago I had an Apple Newton PDA that had a feature for downloading books to it. I would download a book and read it on the bus, as I had a hour and a half commute each way. It was Ok, until I found a potential script for Aliens 3. It was sooo good that one morning on the bus I got to a particularly intense spot in the story a was scared big time. I then looked up, realized I was on the bus, and started laughing. I think this evolution has been a long time coming :-)
