then why does anybody buy E-Ink devices? Don't they own laptops? Or do only pirates own laptops? It would seem that if a pirate wants to read an ebook they would be just as likely to want an e-Ink device as anyone else for the same reasons. portability, good reading experience, long battery life. Am I missing something here? Of course a pirate might be more likely to steal one I suppose.
