Do you still use the same computer you had 10 years ago? If not, why did you buy a new one? Better features, faster... etc.

That's the reason in my case. I've basically got a first generation eInk device, and then bought a new one earlier this year. The screen is better, it's faster, smaller, more memory, etc. It also handles DRM for ePub and PDF where the old one only did Mobipocket DRM. I still use the old one occasionally, mostly if I want to take it somewhere that I would be worried about something happening to the new one.

The device technology is still really young, which means that each generation usually has some pretty big improvements.
