I'm another in the "bought it before they were in fashion" crowd.

My first four devices were multipurpose devices (3 palmtop computers and 1 micro-notebook) though my current device is a dedicated ereader (Kindle3). The earlier devices (beginning in 1997 or '98 with an HP LX320) were all used primarily as ereading devices. Beyond alarms and some PIM data, only the micro-notebook saw significant other use and even then it was still used mostly for reading.
