True, the format of most tablets is also not the most ergonomic for reading. In addition, tablets are much more fragile. If I fall asleep and the e-ink reader slides off and drops, it'll probably be fine (then again, I managed to kill my Kobo Glo by flopping on it), but I'm far more paranoid about the tablet.
And finally, I have to charge the tablet daily, or at least every second day, since I use it for other things than just reading. My e-readers get charged maybe once a week without actually needing it. They are more like books than they are like computers.
