Lightbulb why call it e-reader?

i've been thinking. the e-reader is actually a low budget computer with very comfortable to read screen and low weight. wouldn't it be better if we just call it an eink-computer or something like that?
companies could just release a few basic programs, a developing environment, and the required libraries, and let the open source community deal with language compatibility, calender and whatever application that the community needs? this could help reduce the price since the software developing would be cheaper and support would cost less!
