I don't feel any pressure to upgrade. The tech websites and the manufacturers can't pressure me. What they try to do is to tempt you to upgrade. Any industry will try to tempt you to upgrade. Look at cars: some people keep their cars for many years, some people have to have the latest model. My e-reader is good enough, I'll replace it when it breaks, but until then, I have no need to replace it. Others feel differently, of course, and for them, what the latest model offers is worthwhile.
