I wouldn't yet opt for the ebook version of an art book for example.

I agree, some books are just not made for ebooks. But would you take that large artbook with you in the bathtub? Or curl around it in bed or a sofa?
And to those that complain you can't read an ebook in bath? They are wrong. I've been reading my PDA (which was more expensive than my Mini) in the bathtub for as long as I have it. And I don't use a watertight casing either. Just don't drop it in the water and dry your hands before reading. But, wouldn't you do the same with a book?
Actually, I rather read on my electronic book than on my paper book while in the tub. I can put my other hand in the water as I only need one hand to read...
My advice: tell them their loss, and turn away.
I even made pictures of my cat, once, as I was soaking in the tub... My PDA has a camera built in and the cat was fishing for my toes...
