Old post..but since I see it up here...I read maybe as much as 80/20 (reader/pbook) this time of year,and maybe during the colder months 60/40. My percentage of reader time varies and it has increased alot not just because of my preference,but in the summer I spend so much more time away from home-I simply don't get to the stack of books on my nightstand that I am currently reading,nevermind the "to read" stacks.

For me it usually breaks down to cost and whether or not something is a keeper.If its something I want to read and but not necessarily keep,or want to share/pass it along-I won't buy it in ebook format. I find that it takes me much longer to read something not on my reader-because I am reluctant to carry the books around with me. Plus it is SO much easier to read on the reader during my commute than with a regular book...

My reader fits in most of my everyday purses/totes-and definately my weekend tote-the only time I don't carry it is when/if I am going out and my bag is too small for it.
