I own 2 Kindles, 2 505's and a 300.

I also own two Ipads.

They can comfortably coexist in a single household!

After about 20 hours of reading on the ipad I can say that it is an excellent ereader. I have adjusted the backlighting to the point where I can go for hours without eyestrain. Also the weight is a non-issue. For reading illustrated works, magazines,newspapers and comics, the ipad has no rival. It isn't even close.

Now does this mean I have abandoned my beloved Sony readers? Of course not. I use them also.

Is reading a backlit screen different than reading an eink device? Yes. But the difference is not significant ( with the exceptions noted above) and for reading your basic book I can use either set of devices with ease.
