It also gives me a chance to browse the women. I can judge a woman pretty quick sometimes by what she reads. And if you see one reading one of your favorite books, it's a good conversation starter. But if a girl on the train has an e-reader--forget about it! How am I supposed to know what the heck she's reading on that thing? Whatever their strengths, e-readers are conversation killers!
You could always pretend you didn't know what it was and ask her about it. Or if that's too obvoius ask what sort it is and why she likes it.
