I would agree that mobile reading devices are not quite "there" yet. I would also agree that they are too expensive-- too expensive to really justify. I still love mine though, and I won't be without one ever again. And as has been pointed out here many times, PDFs are not really ebooks. The format was designed so that the same printed page could be produced by multiple types of printers. As more people use readers, formats like epub will replace it.
