I bought the Rocket eBook when it first came out an eon ago. I've also been reading eBooks on electronic devices since 1998 and have thousands of eBooks from eBookstores across the Web. I got my (original) Nook because it is easier to take with me on trips, and to read at home. Frankly, now that I am over 50, I like the fact that I can increase the font for easier reading on books that cost less than the tiny printed paper or hardbacks. Also If I hate a book, I don't feel nearly as guilty for deleting it as I would throwing it away. Plus eReaders are better for the environment.
