If you think of them just as eBook readers, maybe, but think of bigger screens (like Kindle DX), color and newspaper/magazines/comics... I know lots of people (including my 69 year old father) who'd like to have such a device!

Yep, as I've already said: I use my CyBook as long as it lasts for eBook reading and I'm happy with it as it's now - don't need no st*nking updates anymore...
