Of course I also feel no need for a cellphone much less a smartphone instead of a landline. Have a desktop instead of a laptop or tablet.

This is similar to me. (Although I do have a net-book). I've been reading paperbacks all my life - the current models of e-readers I have (K4, and Sony PRS-T2) simulate the paper pages just perfectly imo.
Because of this, it is hard to perceive a non-lit piece of technology useless. If it's good enough on a paper book, it's good enough on e-ink screens.
