I bought an ebook reader so I wouldn't have to read on my computer. Just like I imagine others bought an ebook reader so they wouldn't have to read on an iPhone.

I think a better question is, would Amazon be getting as much flak from nerds if they weren't on top of the pile and if the publishers were doing something worse?
Sony isn't much better and they only open up when they fall behind in market share.

With Amazon being perceived as the "evil" company, alot of people are pushing Sony's stuff which is just laughable to me. You think they would have added ePub and Adobe DRM protected PDF support if Amazon didn't pick up so much steam or if they were unopposed with Amazon's marketshare? No, no chance in hell.
