Several reasons, not all of which are in your poll
- I am an avid reader and love reading books
- I lack the space to keep them all in paper
- I read some things which are not in print (course notes, for example) and this lets me carry them with me and read them more comfortably than off a computer
- I read in French so the built-in dictionary is helpful to me
- I am not a huge music person so the text to speech feature appealed to me so I could have something to do while walking, commuting, at the gym
The ebook reader has been a dream come true for me. I love my Kindle!
