If I have to be seen in public staring at an electronic device, please dear God let it be an eReader. At least you look intelligent that way, unlike the folks who are non-stop staring at their cell phones.
If you want eReader sales to take off, just have Apple make one called the iReader and sell it for $2000 including 256k of memory, $3500 for the 1Mb model. Requires a special charging cord that sells for $75. No side-loading from anything, except a Mac. Memory and battery not upgradeable or replaceable, of course. Obsolete in one year, when the newer model comes out.
