We've always been a Sony Reader family, all the way from my first PRS-500 way back when. I also read on my iPaq PDA back then, and still read on it at the gym - I keep waiting for it to die from sweat, but it hasn't yet!
I've branched out since then, and I have a Nook ST, a Kindle keyboard, and a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus, in addition to my PRS-T1, but the rest of the family is pretty much Sony, all (husband, son, father) on PRS-300's which I gave them (and maintain), except for my lone cousin who has one of those basic Kindles. And, with all of those e-readers floating around, I still read mostly on my Galaxy S2...

I started the reader addiction in my family:
Me - Sony PRS-505 (2009) Kindle Keyboard 3G (2010) Kobo Vox (2011) Kindle Touch (2012) and my latest is Kobo Glo (as of last Friday). Mum - 'joint custody' Sony PRS-505 (2009) Elonex (2009 - Now departed after youngest nephew played around with buttons too much) Imagin Reader (2009 backlit colour LCD reader) Kindle Keyboard Wifi (2010) and Kobo Touch (2011). My sister-in-law has a Kindle Keyboard 3G one after my brother asked for suggestions for Xmas 2010. So my fault again!!  My Dad would love one but can only 'read' audio books due to being legally blind. |

Well, my dad and my mom have Kindles - I think Mom has the K3, and Dad the K4. Dad also has an ipad. My brother and little sister's respective families all are ipad families. My older sister has a K3, but I don't know how much (or if) she uses it.
In our family, my son and husband both have k4s. I've got a K3, a K4 that I got on too good a sale to resist, and a Sony 350. I'm seriously looking at the Paperwhite, but ghu only knows what I'll do with my K3 if I get one. I think it *is* possible to have too many ereaders. I might sell my extra k4 if I get the paperwhite, but I want to keep the Sony as an epub reader (even though I use Calibre and The Tools so I can convert at will) |

Nope its only me. In fact out of my family and close friends I'm the only one who has an ereader. I am also the biggest reader in the family. My mum and cousin do read the odd novel but they only read during their commute to work.

I wish....family of 6 here, and only my 9 yo daughter enjoys ereading. My boys prefer paper books, my youngest one is only 6, so she likes to play games on the Nook Color. My 9 yo has an Aluratek Libre Color, and also can share my Paperwhite, or read on the NC (she likes lighted screens, not unlighted e-ink). All the other ereaders are mine....I certainly have enough for everyone LOL. I do share my Fire 1 with my girls. My eink family consists of 2 Sony T1's, 2 Kindle Keyboards, and the above mentioned paperwhite.

My roommate now has my K3 and he's family so yes.
My mom is in Florida and she's very much a garage sale / swap with friends reader. If she expresses an interest I will talk her out of it because there's no one near her to provide assistance with ereaders / ebooks. |
