LCD is quite mature, it makes sense to use it. If only they were less "energyvorous". I like the physical aspects of this device.

As you say, the problem with LCD is its power consumption. I have an original CyBook, which has an LCD screen. It drains its battery in about 4h of usage. Even the very best Tablet PCs only seem to manage 6-8h on a charge. That's not ideal for a book reader.
