Having to plug the book in to the computer really truly makes it feel like a much older device.

What about changing the display dimensions of the reader? Change the aspect ratio 3:4 towards a screen ratio that resembles the paper book dimensions a bit closer which varies from publisher to publisher but is in general approximately 1:1.5~1.55 for most fiction books. Educational and other books can have other dimensions.

Like:
Horizontal resolution: 1024 pixels
Vertical resolution: 1536 pixels
H:V ratio: 1:1.5 / 2:3

6" screen
Diagonal: 6 inches (15.24cm)
Display size: 3.33" × 4.99" = 16.62in² (8.45cm × 12.68cm = 107.2cm²) at 307.67 PPI, 0.0826mm dot pitch, 94663 PPI²

7" screen
Diagonal: 7 inches (17.78cm)
Display size: 3.88" × 5.82" = 22.62in² (9.86cm × 14.79cm = 145.91cm²) at 263.72 PPI, 0.0963mm dot pitch, 69548 PPI²
