eBook devices are all in a state of transition. None are perfect and new ones will be introduced replacing those now being sold. The content, no matter what format, will eventually be phased out or die out for lack of support. Any book I buy, lrs, LIT, prc or whatever may continue to be read on some old device but a new one will come along, probably with a different format, that will be “better” than the old one.
If you want to be able to read a book 10 or 20 years from now, buy a paper copy!
Actually I think the future in eBook devices lies with newspapers and magazines. Kindle has a great idea with wireless delivery, although I have no idea how well these are reproduced on the kindle. I think this is the primary route for eBook devices. Now I use libprs500 to download several papers daily and they are my primary 505 reading.
