Tablet, always has been and probably always will be (though, to be fair, my first tablet did have an E-ink screen). I have no trouble reading from LCD, not even in the low ppi days of the PalmPilot. Extra features do not distract me (my kids however are constant distractions. Games, the web and e-mail, not so much). Battery life is in the 10-12 hr range, and I charge it when I sleep. I have charging options for pretty much everywhere I go. The only place I read outdoors is at our cottage which is in a forested area, so plenty of shade*.

Dedicated ereaders really don't hold that much of an attraction for me, but I can see why they would for others.

*Pick the right tree. Avoid White Pines. I have a p-book with three chapters of pages glued together by pine sap...
