I have an eye condition. I can't read normal books because of the text size, so I thought that e-ink might work for me, but the contrast wasn't really good enough unless I had a very bright light, and I couldn't read for too long. I've found the iPad better for long periods for reading, but I really miss e-ink's great battery life. I'd love to get a look at a new e-ink screen with a portable book light and see how long I could read that. A kindle would be nice, because I'd have the text-to-speech if my eyes started to get sore. The iPad works for me for now, though.
