Pointing out the majority of he people won't notice 50 grams is clearly not the same as "nobody notices". Nor does this in anyway mean: Those who notice are insignificant. A significant part of the population is clearly a quantity indication.
One would expect ereading comprehension to be higher in here. But feel free to play the victim  |
Well, there are two sides to it, and reading the posts in this thread, the "less weight" viewpoint is being dismissed out of hand. I totally get why weight is an issue for some. There are times when I set the ereader in my lap, doesn't really matter then. There I times when I physically hold it, unsupported, and weight DOES matter. And that's the beauty of ereaders, the lighter, the better, because then it can be used by EVERYONE in ANY circumstance.
If weight doesn't matter for some, that's cool, I have no issue with it, and no one else apparently does either. But the thread has been critical of those who DO have an issue with it, and that's a shame. If you can't see both sides, then just be polite about it.
