I think it's a toss-up. Yes, a multipurpose device (i.e., a smartphone or tablet) will let you simply download the appropriate apps and read whatever you want. However, I don't know of any multipurpose devices that are also e-ink, and I think e-ink makes for a more pleasurable reading experience. (Your mileage, obviously, will vary.) For someone with the money to do it, and who doesn't care about e-ink, a capable tablet is probably a better investment. But there are things you give up with either option.
