You'll be able to read PDFs using Adobe, text documents with whatever wordprocessor it comes with and ebooks in many different formats. Books, free and purchased are a few clicks away. You'll get reasonable battery life, the ability to take notes or write a journal and print things out.

For me, the drawbacks are that it's dang hard to hold onto one while lying on your side in bed or riding on the train or...

Fine if you can live with the heat the device generates, the short battery life, the form factor, and the screen. I would even prefer a phone to a computer screen for reading (I sometimes use my phone when the reader is not available), but in the end --- give me my e-ink reader!
