Mycropht, it's obvious you're the "e-books-should-substitute-my-p-books " kind of person. What you (and the author of the review) forget is that many don't consider e-books as replacements of p-books, but as complements. For instance, there are situations when it's infeasable or impractical to carry around physical p-books, in which case the Sony Reader would be a practical alternative.
