iPod Touch and iPhone versus an E-ink device

I have a BeBook (Hanlin v3) ebook reader and an iPod Touch. I bought the BeBook for reading ebooks and the iPod as toy/gadget. While you can use the iPod Touch to read ebooks (and emagazines) I am reluctant to call the iPod Touch a ebook reader. It's ok for short reads like an article or a chapter for those odd moments that otherwise seem a waste of time (train, bus, waiting room, ...) but not for reading a whole book, reading hours on end or outdoors. Although for PDF emagazines and CHM ebooks the iPod outperforms my BeBook. I just finished a review today: http://blog.johan-mares.be/ict/gadge...o-read-ebooks/
