I'd really like to see a much more comprehensive poll than any forum software can manage, preferably with at least a few thousand responses, correlating people's reading device(s), book budget, other entertainment choices, preferred bookstores, feelings on DRM, re-reading habits, choice of genres, and of course all the usual demographic stuff. I have a strong feeling that the ebook market is the ebook markets, and the vendors of everything from devices to books to little LED booklights are missing this entirely.
Hmm. Methinks I will not try to get *that* much information. The masses might throw me off the forum for completely different reasons than self promo--like taking an hour to read the poll...! Not that I wouldn't like the answers, but it would be like the lady who told me she had 3 questions about the state of the economy and after 5, kept right on going until I hung up the phone...

Thanks guys. I'll post it and see what I get!!
