Yes, but it's a bit of a brick - not fun to carry around.

1. I'm getting old and I find that reading from paper is easier on
   the eyes than reading from the screen (especially after a full 
   day of reading from the screen)

2. The paper version also works well when I don't manage to get a seat

3. I circulate the paper version amongst colleagues when I've read it

Having said that though, I sometimes wish I had my laptop so I could try
things out as soon as I read them.

Cheers
