Wired magazine published an analysis of the ceramic cup example, and I believe one had to use the same ceramic cup for 5 years to offset the environmental impact compared to paper. Not that one can draw any comparisons between cups and ebook readers, but I was surprised at how high the environmental impact of the ceramic cup was.
