Have an airline purchase one EZReader for each seat. Install books on them for the passenger to read. (complete gutenburg, google books). Passengers can bring their own SD card and read their own books if they so choose.

The EZReader is tethered to the back of the seat in front of them, so as to help prevent theft. After the flight, they can have surveys to whether the passenger used the reader, and how well they liked it.

If successful, more airlines might set up this program.
Dear Griffonwing:

YOU are absolutely right!! Why not have a tethered program where people can read on the EZ Reader or Pocket PRO or Mentor at their leisure. I do not know who I will reach first but, frankly, IF anybody at the airlines will listen... it would be an incredible program.
