Good points, and I see where the reader does make sense for students. Originally, however, the Sony pitch was not to students, but to the general public, and they are now pitching the student market as the savior. That makes me think they are fishing for a market, which in turn makes me think they sense that this device will not be a hit. Besides, as you well know, there is excellent reader software already out there, and while it is for devices that do not use E-ink, it does allows for a satisfactory reading experience. I must confess that I did not find e-ink so much better (don't all howl at me at once), but then I'm an old guy and don't see the improvement as clearly, I am sure.
