BOOKS: Keep them (with one exception). Yes, e-readers are amazing, and yes, they will probably become a more dominant reading platform over time, but consider this about a book: It has a terrific, high-resolution display.

You can even borrow them free at sites called libraries.
Some of the reasons why, despite the iReader and hundreds of apps on my iPhone, I still lug around a standard-sized story book in my oversized handbag.
