However, tell them you can put hundreds of books on the reader, that you can choose to read whichever one you want, anywhere you want, anytime you want.
Tell them that the device automatically "keeps your page" for you when it closes.
Tell them, (with the Kindle) you can download a book from Amazon, or MobileRead, or Feedbooks.com, instantly........with just a push of the button. Again, anytime, anywhere.
Tell them about the built in dictionary.
Tell them about the ergonomics. No more cramped hands, from trying to hold a paper book open.
Tell them about the adjustable font. No more squinting to see small text.
THATS what ebook readers are about, also.

Tell them about reading in bed (no shifting the book around to get the light)
Tell them about finishing one book, and being able to start another, no matter where you are.
Tell them about MobileRead.
