When I am not working I can sometimes spend 8 hours reading novels on my eink ereader. I can assure you that I would not be able to do so on a LCD screen. I can read a short email at work on my computer screen but longer than that and I need to print the document in order to be able to read it.

The fact that I cannot read a novel on my computer screen is now a problem as I have 3 ebooks that simply won't open on my ereader but can be open through ADE. (and yes, my ereader is authorized). As for another DRMed ebook, I can only read half the book on my ereader but it stops halfway because my ereader seems to think that page 111 is in fact page 217, which is supposed to be the last page. And again, all pages can be read on my computer. So not being able to read on a lcd screen is clearly a problem for me.

I love my current ereader but I want a second one as I hate having to stop reading because I have to recharge my reader and do not like it with I have to recharge it when it's at half its power. I really don't know which one I will be buying as it does seem that readers currently or soon to be released are LCD tablets or touchscreen dedicated ereader (I know many of you like the touchscreen but I don't)...
