Or... possibly... there is a larger variety of people out there than you imagine.
You miss the point . There is a reason why the ebook market didn't take off until the introduction of the Kindle. The Kindle offered just what the average consumer wanted, chief among which was a convenient form factor- just about the size of a paperback.
Your talk of " Linux users" reveals your geek emphasis ( not that there's anything wrong with that) . Linux users are almost by definition not the average consumer. Even then, I'm pretty sure that those Linux users do not do most of their reading on PCs. They probably read on their Nooks .
