Just to complicate matters further, this thread reminded me of a miscommunication once where the word ebook was used to refer to the file and the device. Given that ebook is short for electronic book this does make some sense.
So we now have ebook, e-book, ereader, e-reader, ebook reader, and e-book reader. How is liseuse any less valid than the other 6 choices?

i personally use "ebook" to refer to the actual book (file) i read on my liseuse. i use "ebook" in french as well, by the way.
