Those who do light reading (0-1,5 hours máx reading time in a single day) won't bother to have a specific device just for reading, when they can have another one that allows reading and many other things that interest them.
Those who read more, eye strain/comfort is a bigger issue, e-ink is (today) the best option for them.

You get no more eyestrain from reading LCD than e-ink! eye strain is caused by keeping the eyes focused at the same distance it doesn't matter what your looking at. regularly looking away at something in the middle to far distance will remove eye strain using either device.
Ima heavy reader 3 hours a day 3 or 4 days a week and when I pack my bag to go for the train if my iPad can display my ebooks why would I take my PRS 505 with me as well.
I dont think that many will buy the iPad just for reading but for those that are getting one it will in most cases i think replace their e-ink.
