Why should they?

There are always lots of skirmishes and kerfuffles when an industry gets off the ground. There's no particular reason why anyone who is just getting into ebooks needs to know the difference between the Rocketbook and the Cybook.

Nor should every article about ebooks be oriented towards the tiny percentage of early adopters -- especially in the UK, where ebooks are just starting to get off the ground.
