I'd agree. Without readable display you can't read at all. I got a wooden board, called it an ereader, but nobody would believe me!


But I don't agree that an ereader should have an e-ink or similar display. It should be able to show you books, you should be able to easily "flip pages" (at least hardware buttons, "screen swipes" should be extra) and it should have a decently long battery life.

I'd cancel the order if I were you.
Nate, you made him go back to his drawing board again, while he was so happy he didn't have to anymore!
