Smoke and Mirrors: Nice opinion!
Thats why I chose the ipad2. Ereader LCD tablets are all the rage now due mainly to B&N and now Amazon. (And of course KOBO). I think it may be a passing fad. People mainly want a cheap media consumption device first- and as an ereader second. I think the way to go is to get an eink reader and a more powerful and larger tablet such as ....well......Im going to say the ipad since that is currently the most popular at the moment.
