I'm interested in those who say they have barely touched their ereaders since getting a tablet, what kind of reading do you do?
Exclusively novels for hours at a time on both my Samsung GMP5 or my Nexus 7.

My GMP5 saves my sanity when I'm commuting to & from work since if I don't want to hear other people yapping on their phones or any other foolishness I just put in my earphones start playing my music files and read in peace. Nor do I have any trouble reading it outside in sunny weather while I'm waiting for the trolley. My Nexus stays at home for reading there.

I have zero problems with eye strain, being distracted just because my tablet/player can do more than just display books or any other reasons people give for not liking to use tablets for reading.

There are no hard rules when it comes to using either an eink or a tablet. It doesn't have to be either or. It all comes down to personal preference I can/will read on any device, just don't tell me I shouldn't be doing so on one because it is so inferior. Both are equally fine to me.
