Did you know that E-Readers get heavier with each book...

Heres an unusual one for all our scientists to think about...


The Daily Telegraph has reported on the research of Professor John Kubiatowicz of Berkeley University. His research has found that devices such as the Amazon Kindle and other E-Reader's get heavier as books are added to them...

Heavy stuff indeed!
