The only mild difference is that a pbook often requires two arms, and an e-reader usually only one, which means on cold nights I can keep one arm warm under the duvet while reading.
That reminds me, back in the old days, I would be under the covers in the bed and just have a thumb and a finger out from under the blanket holding the Paper Book. You couldn't do that with a big book though.

The other thing I noticed back then was that the large CRT Display and my big desktop warmed my little study and workroom nicely when the door was closed.
