My 10-year-old has had one for close to a year and a half now and still loves it. She always read a reasonable amount, but since getting the e-reader, she is a voracious reader. She reads frequently and, now that she's had so much practice, pretty quickly so she reads a great number of books.
I got her the e-reader because piles of books were showing up all around her room, and now she is reading much more and her room stays neat.
My younger one (4) likes the e-reader to some extent but really prefers paper books. I think when they are read to, they like paper, but when they read to themselves, the e-readers are a great option.
