As soon as they understand how a dedicated eReader works they tend to realize that it's pretty much the same thing as reading a "real book" and that's it. We can then move on to arguing/discussing about what genres or authors are "worthy" of our attention...

Perhaps you're right. Very, very few people here have ever seen an ereader or know what it is. They think it's the same as your average tablet.
