Does everyone have a Kindle yet? I don't. I still like the tactile feel of pages, plus the color and typography in printed books.
But... sometimes it's nice to read a digital version for those longhauls, waits at the airport, etc.
There are a few tea ebooks for free download here in any format you like (Kindle, Iphone, etc.):
Google Books has an extensive collection of books about tea. I use it quite a bit. For example I have the hardcopy of The Culture and Marketing of Tea by Harler Second Edition 1956. It is only available to view in Snippet ie photocopy. Search pu-erh and you will see the referenced passage which is the earliest Ive found. There is a 1933 edition and Im not sure if it is there. Most of my Chinese dictionaries are cataloged. I use it for key word search and flip to the page in my hardcopy. I understand the copyright downside to this approach. I see presses printing new editions of old books from online demand requiring print. I think a great boon if using a library is familiar to you.

Not I.
Me too. Plus, it irks me to think of paying money, not for ownership of the book, but merely for the right to view it on one particular device that could die or become obsolete.
Right. For that, I have public domain books that I can read on my smartphone.
