I do laugh. It's like people who buy an expensive big-screen television and only watch the news. Sure. And I don't believe readers buy a tablet to read. Tablet buyers play games, watch movies, surf the net, listen to music, oh, and read something once.

I almost always have an ereader with me but if I don't my phone with a Kindle app will suffice but I don't have the phone for reading. I don't even have it for phone calls. I'm deaf. I text, I use my dictionaries, I check the current exchange rate, I use Google Keep for my grocery list and Google Calendar for my schedule. If I'm expecting a package via UPS I can use the phone to track it. And, when caught short, I'll read my current book on the phone.

I'm amused by people who know how long the ereader battery will last when the ereader isn't turned on. There hasn't been a day in the last five years when I didn't read on my ereader.
