Lots of you are still using Sony's that were bought more than 5 years ago. I'm sure there are plenty of others who will use their Kindles, Nooks and other devices until they die. Then they will go to replace them and ereaders will be history. Remember, MBAs are running the show and a flat market means failure in their greedy brains.

That's me - I keep my stuff for a long time. I sure hope eink is still available in the future; I don't like reading on a computer/tablet screen.
