I have to be an enthusiast to buy it or it has to provide a real benefit to advise it to a "normal" user.
The highlighting and scribbling functions and fast switching between many open books are such functions. These are far from perfect in the current release, but that can easily be optimized by some motivated programmers and a good concept for the menu structure and usage concept. In this thread we collected lot of ideas for that. The Hardware is here not the limiting factor.

You can print it, but how do you plan on carrying it, or finding what you need, or jumping to the exact page you want, etc.?

It solves a lot of issues rather than lugging around paper (not to mention wastefulness towards the environment)
