EDITORS NOTE: Here's a chance to help out some university students and possibly have an impact on the future of e-reading devices. So, those of you with the time and inclination, please have a look.

A group of students at the University of Michigan are looking at the usability heuristics of electronic portable reading devices (aka eReaders). We are currently conducting a survey and are offering you a chance to win a free, silver iPod Shuffle (http://www.apple.com/ipodshuffle/specs.html).

We are looking for participants who either do or don't have experience using eReader devices. The goal of this survey is to gather information regarding your daily reading habits and reading preferences. On analyzing the results, we hope to develop guidelines to design eReaders of the future.

Survey link: http://s-vx5e0-36247.sgizmo.com

Please pass our survey link to others who may have experience with eReaders, an interest in e-books or enjoy reading in general. Our survey will be available until Tuesday, March 11, 2008.

Thank you for your time and we appreciate your feedback.
