You underestimate the techno-fear/fear-of-the-new some people have... People on carry laptops because they've had them setup for them, and have been instructed how to use them. I once worked for a CEO... After five years using PCs he hadn't figured out that "File" -> "Open" could be used instead of double clicking on email attachments. No-one had ever shown him how, and he didn't want to break his computer by experimenting...

Who will show them how to use a Sony Reader...?
