I discovered that my iPhone would work wonderfully as an eReader when I read my first free kindle book. Not liking reading on a computer and not thinking the size of the iPhone would lend itself to book reading -- I was VERY surprised to find out how great a reading experience it was.
I bought my iPad for other reasons, but it too is a fantastic device for reading not only books, but newspapers, magazines, comics and the web.
Easy access to free and commercial books. I bought a book last night at 1am while reading a web site in bed on my iPad. The article mentioned a book, I went to the iBookstore, and bought the book instantly for $9.99 (my first iBook purchase, previously I'd only bought from Amazon, Baen or Fictionwise).
The Baen Free Library and the collection of free sci fi Baen books at The Fifth Imperium also deserves to be mentioned. Great sci fi -- free.
