Wow it's a good thing that's in the Opinion section of their site. The way I read that article he just doesn't like/doesn't see a need for e-readers/e-ink so he's dumping on them all. I don't see how a slate is going to solve the piracy issue or the DRM confusion issue or any of the multitude of supposed issues he see's with e-books. And I'm not interested in slate for reading, I'm quite happy with my e-ink thanks. It's amazing how far the e-book market has shifted since that article was written, since the little no-name companies (read Kobo) are putting out product that's improving every day and are close to being a superior product to the Kindles of the world. Not to mention the fact that they have forced the big guys to bring down their prices to a point where the mass market can afford/is willing to buy them.
