the ipad is not an ereader. the sony 600 is an ereader. don't confuse the two devices. and that's not meant to be a slam against either device. comparing them is never really going to work. the ipad is capable of so much more.

eink is a display technology. just like LCD is. and it isn't any more or less "killer" than a crayon drawing on a piece of paper. both have their advantages and disadvantages.
