The problem I have with eBook reading devices is that they are not on sale with warranty in the UK. Try going into computer stores here and enquire about them. The people in the store do not know what one is talking about. I have even been told that there are no such devices!
The other problem is the price reported on various websites. They are very expensive (over £300) for a one-function device. An ASUS UMPC is only £197. Basic laptops can be bougth for a around£220 and I can read eBooks on these in any format.
I just cannot see them taking off in the UK unless they are in the shops at aropund £180 maximum. (inc VAT).
When they are available at a sensible price, with full warranty, then I will buy one - but not until.
