And I'd not list a device (or maybe say something like the aforementioned "yes") because, as a reader, I'd be leery of an author who has a device really different from mine.

If I were writing for a living, rather than the odd bit of sloganeering and poetry now and again, I would use that to justify buying every shiny ereader that looked tempting. Instead I am forced to be practical. Note that since I don't write for a living I do get to write and speak almost entirely in compound or run on sentences.
