Yes. The fragility, low resolution, low contrast and short battery life of current ebook readers.

I want a robust ebook reader (no glass that shatters), at least 300dpi display, contrast at least as good as current paperbacks, and a battery that lasts at least a month (i.e. 15 books) before needing a recharge.

I expect to get everything except the battery life in the next five to ten years.
