I never leave the house without my ereader since I got my first one.
Oh yeah, ereaders are definitely still a thing and a big part of my daily life that I wouldn't be without. Although my preference is 6" for portability, they're also in enough various sizes to suit most everyone at this point. No improvements recently? No need as far as I'm concerned, they're perfect as is to just keep reading.

Yeah, I agree. Reading on a phone or tablet never would have convinced me to buy an ereader. There's something about eink screens that just works for me. I guess it's just because they look like paper.
I didn't pay attention to the early Kindles or Nooks. But the Nook ST with Glowlight grabbed my attention. I bought one after seeing the commercials (remember commercials for ereaders?) and immediately became an ebook reader.
