He's saying it takes 32.5 books on the same e-reader for that device to become green. At that rate I'm thinking most people here have a green e-reader within a year, two tops. Not five like the apparent average.

What flabbergasts me most about that article is this piece:

...most eReaders are used for only two years before being discarded, replaced, lost or broken...
I don't doubt the veracity of that claim, but it's really astonishing to me. Two years? If it got lost or broken I'd of course replace it, but I'm hoping I can use my Kindle for at least 10 years, hopefully more.
