@A Bell - eReaders run on eInk technology, which doesn't hurt your eyes like a computer screen: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_Ink

I can't stand to read more that a few paragraphs off of a large computer screen much less one of those E-books. I'll take a throw-a-way newspaper or an inexpensive and light paperback before I'd lug around a heavy couple of hundered dollar device that I have to keep up with. If I ever would consider E-books, I wouldn't pay more than "a buck for a book".
