Banish that book bag

Ever worry what that 35-pound monster of a book bag is doing to your kid's back, neck and shoulders? The weight of book bags dragged back and forth to school by high school and college students is ridiculous. Some students are smart enough to bring roller luggage to school, but no doubt it attracts unwanted attention and sneers from the "cool" kids.

I just checked out an online ad for the Kno Textbook Tablet. It's like a Kindle™. The only problem was, when I tried to look up textbooks for courses at MCC, I couldn't find any that could be ordered for the Kno. There may be some, but I didn't find them.

What could be better than carrying around an electronic textbook? Carrying all your textbooks in one electronic reader! Check out http://www.kno.com/
