I think it's not safe to say any such thing.
If a book reader is used for say 3-4 book per year it's probably not an eco-friendly solution for reading.

As those numbers grow (in some cases up to hundreds of books), it's obvious ereaders are very practical. It has been discussed before how big is the carbon footprint of a single book. Especially when shipped across the globe...
