I am discussing his point. Kali and I and others in this thread (but not all of course) have said in effect that we smirk, laugh, and in fact resent those writers, editors and So Called Experts in many online magazines, forums, etc., that berate, belittle, begrudge and don't understand eReaders, their purpose, their form, and why they succeed and these "experts" constantly predict their failure for one reason or another, but particularly lately because of the iPad and they have been constantly wrong, yet they assume the mantle of experts and malign those who don't go along with them.
