I read for a couple of years on a Palm and then a Pocket PC. My first dedicated e-book reader was the ebookwise (which I still have). Then I upgraded to the Sony Reader and now I have a Kindle. I'm one of those that likes the bigger size and likes the fact that it doesn't have lots of bells and whistles.
I don't want to be called, reminded of an appointment or listen to music on my e-reader. I like the "paperback" size because I don't do any traveling or anything, so it's very comfortable for me to read on.
I enjoy my reading experience much more as a result of the e-ink experience. But I can see where your are coming from--this site is pretty e-ink focused. That's probably because the site is devoted to mobile reading and e-ink is something that makes it much easier for the majority of people who are jumping on the e-book wagon.
I will say that I sometimes miss uBook though, that's an awesome little ebook reading program. You can pretty much read anything with that.
