I came across this blog post today by Penn over at eHarl and have to say I agree with her likes and dislikes of ebooks. And for someone who’s fairly immersed in technology I’m sad to say I hadn’t even thought of one point that she brings up. An important one!

With technology changing, will we still be able to read ebooks we buy today in say ten or twenty years. I’ve already come across problems with buying ebooks from Harlequin. Their reader, though pretty, worries me. The first ebook I bought from them gave me reservations about buying from them. Now I buy from other avenues. Technology seems to be the driving force behind ebooks. It’s also the thing, I think that will hold ebooks back.

Have you encountered any issues with opening files? Transferring types? Is a reader like Sony’s or the Kindle the answer? What do you think?
