It's a case of using the best tool for the task at hand. I am typing this message on a device with an LCD screen.

That.
From my perspective LCD flatly sucks for reading. I'll do it in a pinch (often grab a few pages of reading on my iPhone) but still... not even a comparison.
But I'm no purist. Something better than eInk comes out I'm there. Whatever gets the job done.
