I have to second this. I find reading on my Kindle much more pleasurable than reading paper - less distracting, more convenient and just a joy. Selecting a font size that's right for my lighting and not having to deal with some of the more odd and elaborate font choices.
And of course, ultimately, the most important thing to me is that the format of the book reader *does* disappear and the only thing that is left is the words and the story.
