If one wants to read ebooks on a Windows machine (or a Mac) --- that's always been an option.
Anyone else remember the Voyager ebooks?
I used to run Adobe Acrobat on an NCR-3125 (yes, I'm dating myself) and there were similar programs for Go Corporation's PenPoint.
I've read a fair number of ebooks on Fujitsu pen computers and Tablet PCs --- it's fine if the need for a larger display and colour justifies the extra weight and the occasional tethering to a wall outlet (w/ an extended life battery my ST4120 will last for _almost_ a day's usage).
It's going to take some amazing advances in battery life / energy storage to make machines using LCDs competitive w/ eInk --- I read far more on my Sony than on my Stylistic.
