With an eInk reader, you need to have someone who reads enough to find having a specialized device worthwhile. Most of the people I know who read are a mix between pbooks and reading on their tablet/phone. As an estimate, those who own an eInk device make up about 4% of the book readers I know though that group probably buys and reads more books than the other 96%'s combined pbook and ebook purchases.
