E-readers are a real niche market. Despite what anyone says, p-books aren't going to be replaced anytime soon as they meet the needs of most of the people currently using them.
That said, the folks who post here fall into one or more of any number of "interesting" niches, reflected by their interest in e-books:
Voracious readers who can't fit another p-book onto their groaning shelves.
Gadget freaks, interested in the features and functions of their gadgets.
People who travel and also like to read, who need the convenience of a device that allows them to take more than just a paperback or two with them.
Readers who don't have local access to reading material (in their preferred language or languages, or of their preferred genre).
And probably lots of other niches I've left off. But finding other folks to talk to who are in similar situations is always fun. We're kind of one big giant "self help" group here!
