Which name do you think will eventually prevail?

I think the main issue is that the term "eReader" is also the name of a specific product, so many people avoid using it as the general term to avoid confusion.
I usually try to say "eBook reader" when I remember to. But I don't think there's any general consensus on what the term should be.
