Does cold weather affect your choice of reading device?

You figured that out.

The only time I'd worry about this if it was ridiculously cold. Like there were days last winter where we had a high temperature for the day of -20F (-28C). At that temperature, plastic sometimes starts to get funny, and if the high for the day was -20, then obviously it was colder than that at night. I wouldn't bring an e-reader places with me because I'd be worried about how it would handle it if it got that cold, and especially I accidentally left it in the car and it got that cold for any length of time, like overnight.

But we don't usually have weather that crazy. For normal cold weather, no I don't worry about it. I take my e-readers wherever I want.

That observation never occurred to me. Maybe because I don't think the kind of weather affects my choice of reading device because I usually read books for my travel time and whenever I'm indoors. That's an interesting notion though.

That's good. I hardly ever see the police on the xway here.

No. I use my kindle in all weathers and it hasn't failed me yet.

It's that durable it can withstand numerous weathers

I haven't a furry case yet, I'm yet to see anyone use it either. I think if I ever had one (with the right design) I could flaunt it for the winter season
