Outoor reading requires e-ink, but its' something lots of us do mostly on holidays. New displays like PaperTab can give the market a shake, if they don't delay too much. |

Some people complain that the "e-reader movement" (if we can call it this way) is interested only in sell... well... e-readers, and not books.
That's a common criticism. |

Before e-ink e-readers I never seriously considered e-reading novels, even though I did try to read on a Palm M105. The experience of it and frequent crashes were not for me. Experience first on a PRS-300, then shortly on a Odyssey (until its usb-connector broke off) and now on a PW is much much better. |

My post was just to show one of the arguments that people use when they want to say something against the e-reader culture. Peace. |

And of course the purpose of e-readers is to sell them and make money. Some sell the device, others sell the device as a storefront for their content. |
