They both have their advantages and their disadvantages. For me, the advantage of e-ink is battery life and the ability to read in bright light (be it sun or otherwise) easily. The disadvantage so far is the backlight in a dark environment: it won't go dark enough without losing too much contrast. So, that's when I switch to a tablet, which I can turn very dark, adjust some colours and still have a good enough contrast.
