Thus we have a world in which phone companies have accustomed kids to paying up to 20 cents when they send a text message but it seems technologically and psychologically impossible to get people to pay 10 cents for a magazine, newspaper or newscast...

Sure, old-fashioned cookbooks are nice to look at, but they eat up too much counter space and can't compete with the ever expanding trove of recipes online. And getting recipes off websites like Epicurious and food blogs like Simply Recipes and 101 Cookbooks can leave you with a haphazard pile of printouts. The solution? Handheld devices not only let you browse hundreds of recipes on the go but also create electronic shopping lists you can easily tote to the store.
