I bought my first device (Palm) because I wanted a device that had alarms and could keep a database of my paper books and then I discovered I could convert webpages and get free gutenburg and baen books to read on it.
My current devices were also bought for more purposes then just reading books (Ipod touch to replace my palm and a small tablet) even though I probably spend more time reading than anything else. It's not that I'm opposed to having a dedicated device for reading but I can't bring myself to buy another device for myself when what I have is more than good enough. And I like the fact that I'm not walled into any particular garden even without removing DRM (although my desire to have my books organized in one spot and use the reader apps of my choice means that I regularly remove DRM anyways).
