I absolutely still read print books:) The Nook has some positive things going for it but given a choice and unlimited storage space, I would always choose print. Call me old fashioned or whatever else but all the new gadgets in the world won't remove my love for paperbacks.
I read on the Nook frequently but find myself actually longing to have a paperback in my hand. Then I go to my mountainous TBR pile or to the paperbacks I still buy.
Cost is another issue. Except for hard cover books, which I don't buy, most of the ebooks I'm interested in are not less expensive than paperbacks and there's a price point that I simply won't go beyond for an ebook when I can have the paperback in my hand for equal or less. It's a very real consideration for a book a day reader.
Like everything else in life, Debbie, there are pros and cons:) ~Nancy
