Flash memory instead of HDD might help with that too.
There are netbooks that topple 12 hours of battery life!

Why don't we talk about a Corei7 PC then? It can read a few hundred books at a time,with acceptable pageswap speeds; or what about 90% of the laptops?
Perhaps we should also include Led matrix commercial boards, because after all, it is technically possible to read a book on them line per line!

No reason someone couldn't start a thread about various e-book software programs for PCs etc.

People talk about reading on iPhones and other smart phones, PDAs etc. How is a tablet device any different?
