I agree. But my reason for it being easier to hold is that I like to lay the book next to me on my bed and read. With a paperback book I have to constantly hold it open and sometimes seem to lose my page (e.g. if I put it upside down for a bit and then bump it, or it slips in my hand). The e-book just sits there waiting for me to simply push a button.
And it's also nicer than my Treo in the sense that if I take break or a long time on one page, it doesn't shut off after a few mins. I can dilly dally for up to an hour and it waits there for me without draining the batteries!
On the Treo, the big advantage is that I can read eReader books, which I can't on the Sony Reader (and vice-versa, of course). Plus even better, the Treo is self-illuminated, which means I can read in the dark. Which is a topic that we have batted around quite a bit in other threads, and I'm sure those threads will continue to be resurrected every now and then because it's really a hot topic!
