Yeah, I have an ebook reader and I use it every so often for impulsive reading but I still read paper books 90% of the time. This is mainly due to the fact that I'm taking classes, I suppose.
I just don't understand the mentality where some people on these forums see their purchase of an epaper device as a commitment on principle to never read anything other than ebooks for the rest of their lives. It's crazy. It's as if buying a kindle or prs or whatever makes one born again; it's not an appliance so much as a way of life.
You can even detect a certain defensiveness in the responses to this thread toward the suggestion that one could backslide or relapse to paper books. But yeah, I imagine that GA Russell has it right: most who have found that they prefer paper don't stick around Mobileread for very long.
