I suspect quite a lot of people will do more reading on netbooks if other technologies like PixelQi become available. I'm holding off on purchasing another netbook in hopes that one will be available within the next year or two.
I'm all for tablets, but I do quite a lot of input and I rather hate almost all touchscreen keypad/handwriting solutions or mini-keyboards like that on the Kindle or on some phones. Some of those convertible netbooks were great concepts that would make fabulous ebook readers in theory. Reality needs to catch up a little.
Of course, a dedicated device would be great too, if it were better at actually viewing and navigating books.
