For this trip, though, I'm trying something different. The CD-ROM that came with the book War of Honor includes the text of 20-odd books in a form that can be read on my Palm m505, and I've downloaded three of them: War of Honor, The Prince by Jerry Pournelle and S. M. Stirling, and Fallen Angels by Larry Niven, Jerry Pournelle, and Michael Flynn. That's enough reading to keep me busy for quite a while. The m505's screen is a bit small, so I'll probably buy one or two books at the airport in Minneapolis (there's quite a good bookstore on the concourse there) just in case it turns out to be too hard to read for long periods, but this should be a good experiment.
