Have you ever wondered if there was another way to obtain a textbook other than lugging around a 400 page, 20 lb. wealth of knowledge? Well thanks to Barnes and Noble, they have made the Nook THE reader for students. B&N have done this by bundling $100 worth of texts like A Tale of Two Cities, and The Great Gatsby, just to name a few – the kind of books we all need in our literature courses, into each new Nook. More good news is that Amazon, owner of the Kindle, a competitor reader to the Nook, will rent eBook textbooks to students for discounts.
So with textbooks catching up to technology, perhaps you won’t have to visit your chiropractor this year because of the weight of your backpack.
