Not all of us. I love my Kindle. E-ink devices are ideal for novel reading.

They're just not much good for other types of reading--work, school, academic articles etc. where you need to be able to annotate and highlight easily, flip pages quickly etc.

It's not an either/or proposition. I want both types of devices personally, and there's plenty of room all kinds of devices in the market.

I'll never understand why these discussions tend to get so contentious.

E-ink is great for dedicated novel readers, and such devices will stick around indefinitely. But at the same time, tablet devices fit their own niche and need to come out for those of us who need them for academic reading and other purposes.
