And that's good news for everyone--dedicated e-ink reader fans included--as anything to expand the market means more books available, lower prices etc.
I think you are confused, I'm not being defensive, I'm merely bored of the way you seem to want to shoehorn in your idea of what an ideal device should be regardless of the topic and indeed this time you were seemingly so desperate to do you chose to ignore the majority of my post that was about cost and ease of use since those are very clearly not things that a multifunction device has a hope of hell of competing on.
