Personally, I am more bored by the way the technology goes forward at a snail's pace.
I do understand tho, if there were more people using eReaders, more money would make it to engineers and the progress would be that much faster.
Right now every year the novelties are mostly
around what the eInk screen does (shiny new light!) than a
better eInk screen.
There's the design too. I remember my old Sony Tablet S that was very comfortable to read with because much of the weight was on the side of a "bulge" and thus made it super-easy to hold one-handed.
Maybe tech companies should look into alternative designs than trying to emulate what a paper book is.
But yeah, I'm not bored with eReading ; I'm bored with slow-pace progress.
