Yes, you are right... I was ribbing you because the old line "eReader is a brand name and not a generic name... just bores me and gets old."

I myself bought a book from eReader.com for my Sony... not until I paid and downloaded did I know the truth.
Then again, people use Xerox, Kleenex, Matchbox, iPod, etc when they are refering to generic items rather than brand names and most are able to understand what was meant. I bet many people will call an "eBook Reader" they may see somewhere a "Kindle".
