Hmm so I have this really nice pen, heavy pen, but I'm going to ditch it because I can use a bic pen that weighs next to nothing.

My point is you claimed reading the nook color for hours is not possible because of it's weight. I'm just calling BS on that claim. Jsut because one thing is lighter than the other does not make the other thing heavy.
A 100LB brick is heavy. my pen weighs more than my pencil, that does not make my pen heavy. To you see what I mean?

For anybody reading this and was curious, it weighs slightly less than 1 lb. the equilvant of a 200 page hardcover. Now if reading a small hardcover book was never an issue in the past, it won't be with this.

I'm just trying to keep things in a little bit of a reality perspective.
