I don't know anyone else that uses any form of ereader other than my middle son who will occasionally ready a book on his ipad. I know a few people with ipads and one other person with a Galaxy tab but most of them are used for surfing the net, reading emails and playing games. I don't know anyone with a dedicated ereader.

I'm new to ereading, I've only read 2 books so far using this medium, it hasn't really taken off here yet. I have noticed a few ads recently where it is 'buy a car/computer/whatever and get a free Kobo' I think that a lot must have been picked up cheap when Borders went out of business and are being used for giveaways now.
