If I'm reading a good book and I'm stuck somewhere (waiting on one of my kids, in the doctor's office etc.) I'll often think, "hey wait minute I can read that book on my phone," then sync up and continue reading. It's like finding a treasure I just happen to have with me. So I read on my phone a lot more than I thought I would. And it's a small smartphone (2011 Motorola Admiral with a 3.1" screen). About the size of an iPhone 4, but with a physical keyboard that makes the screen even smaller (I like the small size and physical keyboard). I get twenty lines on that screen and it's perfectly readable for relatively short periods -- 1/2 hour to 40 minutes. At home it's usually the Kindle Touch and sometimes the Nooks or the Kindle Basic with buttons (the poor Kobos and the Sony kind of get ignored, except for charging).
