Sorry Harry, but a couple of hours is not typical for academic reading.
Try reading the whole day on the iPad, day in, day out.

Yes, it wins against the epaper based devices, as far as responsiveness is concerned, but it is not all that matters.

In my point of view, the decision for an academic user is not between an iPad (and the like) and the ebook readers, but rather between a dedicated ereader and old-fashioned paper.
