I am sure that it is such the nature of this forum that the majority would at the very least be thinking of such investments if they haven't already made their moves. Anyone willing to share?
The question to ask is what you expect to get out of it.

Ebooks are a nascent market. Dedicated reader devices are a niche market, and publishers are still groping for a coherent strategy in addressing the market for electronic editions.

I'm not interested in ebook related investments at the moment. But if I were, I wouldn't expect to make money in the near term, and I wouldn't expect to make a lot of money in any case.
