I Want One!

Here is a cool new supersonic jet...


¿It will save passengers time so they can explore more of the world,' the company said. 'Wouldn¿t you love to go hiking in New Zealand for the weekend, or fly to Paris for lunch?

But this is probably all I can afford...

Hi John,

(I know this is off-topic for this post, but I wanted raise it to your attention.)

Regarding the issue that most retail sales are happening offline in real stores (supposedly internet sales are only like 5 % or so), I cannot avoid thinking that book sales (both printed books and ebooks) are different. There seem to be constant reports about commerce taking over in the media. Maybe the retail market is still adjusting to the advent of the internet (even though it's been about 20 years). Could the sales of other products be affected by the internet? Maybe it's just taking longer for the internet to change retail commerce?
