While I'm a Kindle lover, I would agree that this is a perfect example of the kind of "experience" the iPad offers over e-ink readers. Sure, e-ink is perfect for READING, but that's it. It's just perfect for reading and doesn't offer many extra tools to help you absorb the information better like the ability to mind-map it. Mind mapping could be very useful for a lot of readers who read to learn and not for entertainment.
