On the plus side, students of greek and latin (like me!) can get most of their required reading material for free on the net - most of it is public domain! Literature students in general would get a lot of use out of their readers, I dare say. I tend to type up my class notes, and when exam time comes around I just throw 'em onto my reader! I have never been one to mark up books in their paper form, so I don't find that I need that function on my reader, but people who find that they need that function can pick up a sony prs 600 or perhaps one of the i-rex models if they are so inclined.
