How in the world did you infer that I accused anyone of lying? I just stated my opinion, and I will stick by it. If you ever TRY an e-ink device for any length of time, you will see the difference. I also agree that if an e-ink tablet with web browsing capabilities comes to market, I would be one of the first to jump on it. My Iliad allows me to mark up copy and to take notes, so Irex has already overcome that deficiency. I read for pleasure three or four hours a day - from the NYTimes, USA Today, etc., to novels and easier reading. I could never last that long with an LCD.
