There are many role-playing fans who have all of their RPG books scanned into PDFs. As a matter of fact, many RPG companies release their books on PFD, and Wizards of the Coast have released their Dungeons & Dragons 4th edition core books (PH, DMG, MM) on PDF already.
Just with D&D 3.5 alone there are over 30 books. Try packing up a duffelbag and carrying all of those to your next game. I personally have almost all of the 3.5 books in hardback, but I downloaded PDF copies for my laptop. Much easier to tote. If I had a 9.7 Astak or other reader, I could carry them all much more easily.
Hrmm...70 pounds of books or 1 pound astak. *ponder ponder ponder*
That's why a larger screened reader has been on my list for a long time. reading a full-sized Player's Handbook, complete with 10pt font and no zooming in and scrolling over. A dream come true for myself, and many others.
I hope this answers your question.
