I prefer to use the term eReader properly, you prefer to use the term eReader improperly. Your loss for not wanting to use a word in a way that is not how it is defined.

it is a better choice for you, not necessarily for someone else. as far as i know, you don't own an iphone either, so you aren't really capable of making judgment calls on an iphone's uses, and again they would be your opinion, nothing more, nothing less.
I have used an iPod Touch for reading. So yes, I do have experience with both types of screens. I would think most (IMHO) would find a 6" eink screen easier to use to read with then the iPhone (pre-iPhone 4) screen. But the iPad is different and I can easily see people preferring that to a 6" eink screen.
