Here’s a restaurant I would never patronize. The New York Times BITS blogger Nick Bilton had a piece yesterday entitled No E-Books Allowed in This Establishment that tells of his experience he walked into a Manhattan coffee shop for an afternoon cappuccino and sat down with his Kindle while he waited for his order:
“I barely made it a sentence into the e-book I was reading before an employee of the coffee shop came by, stood over me and said, ‘Excuse me sir, but we don’t allow computers in the coffee shop.'”
Same thing happened to him in a Brooklyn sandwich shop. Ugh. It’s enough to ruin your appetite.
