I'd love a dedicated reader for fiction, but for one device to read everything - a tablet is better for me.
I simply have both. Summer is over, so my Sony doesn't get a lot of action anymore and my Flyer gets more.

That video the OP posted has some truths in it (not the distractions, you can always turn those off or simply ignore them, I never have the "need" to check my email (don't do twitter, facebook, and those other social junk) if I see I have one. I simply push away the message if the blinking light (my power lights start blinking) gets annoying.) But a LCD screen is a pain to read in daylight unless you turn up the brightness to 100% And that will drain your battery fast. I do prefer a transflective screen (but those aren't around in the 7" format I'd want) but e-ink is a good second choice.
