Due to some fascinating discussions on the use of the term "liseuse" outside of MobileRead, I wanted to test the waters.

According to babelfish, the German for the English language term "Electronic Book Reader" is "ELEKTRONISCHER BUCH-LESER"

I like it! But it does not exactly roll off the tongue, so I propose the new term "ebuchleser".

Anybody seen this term outside of MobileRead... right now... when I invented it?

Now, I don't want to cause a lot of acrimony, so when you think about this question, just keep in mind that I hate kittens and chocolate. And that I raise the US flag every morning, and salute it, just before I set it on fire.

Discuss.
