i was just gifted an iPad in the last couple of days and once i sync'd my books up with calibre via iTunes (using iBooks), i was surprised at how seamless and easy the transition was and how well the iPad performs.
I haven't bothered trying other reader apps as iBooks performed flawlessly with my ePubs and PDF's.
I was worried about eyestrain due to the backlight, but i control that via iBooks and have read for several hours with no issue.

It certainly wasn't planned to replace my current reader, but it now has. My partner will be using the Sony from now on.

I can't believe how quickly i went from an iPad disliker to an iPad user... i've found the device to be a bit of a revelation really. Very handy.
