But then, so is paper production. And printing.

Probably the dirtiest type of printing is related to color periodicals and newspapers, not to mention that it is that type of printing which most quickly fills up the landfills and recycling plants. As I use my Nook Color to read my magazine subscriptions, I'm trading battery manufacture for monthly printing and disposal, and I'd say the reader comes out on top.
