Concentrating on a single document displayed on e-ink is much easier. At their cheap price point e-readers have a very valid niche until tablets with very high resolutions (which are great to read off) appear.
I think current resolution is more than enough to read off comfortably. It's more about the display not being backlit and having sufficient contrast in sunlight, with no glares, plus being energy-efficient enough for users not to have "range anxiety".
