Well, it's pretty clear that there are basically three types of users - those who love e-ink and never read on anything else, those who dislike e-ink and dedicated e-readers (or just are indifferent enough to not bother to use one), and those who read on both e-ink and LCD. The first and the second type never ever agree on this topic, so any arguments as to which is the better medium for reading quickly become pointless back-and-forth. We just have to agree to disagree.
Yes, e-ink screens are inferior to LCD/AMOLED screens in most aspects. Still, there is a substantial number of people who prefer them for reading, so they must offer something that other types of screens don't, at least to those people, at least not yet. What that something exactly is, now that's not so easy to define. I've tried to read on my phone, for example, but I just don't like it. I can't even say why. It's not the screen size or resolution, it's something much more subjective. All I know is that I like to read on e-ink far more.
