But your e-ink device can't do color, video, internet, video games, full e-mail, can't do magazines or newspapers very well (maybe the latter if it's a large screen device).
Point being, this is a multimedia tablet not a dedicated reader. It can't be held to the same battery life standards as it does a ton more stuff.
If someone needs a long lasting device to read for hours on end, then this device (or any color tablet devices with current technology) aren't for them.
It's a thinner and lighter option that can replace a netbook for people who don't need to do a lot of text entry, that has a better form factor for things like reading than a netbook does. Not a replacement for dedicated e-ink readers.
