Oh, and I guess I'm also responsible for climate change.
Aside from killing the environment, may I ask what do you two prefer about e-Readers?

Is it the size or the screen or something?

I already said - the e-ink. Being a bit smaller and lighter is also nice, but it's mainly the e-ink. It feels like I'm reading off of a page - no glare or back light on the eyes.

E-Ink reminds me of Hee-Haw. The donkey noise, not the show.

This. Also, I like to read right before bed and I read somewhere that staring at a backlit screen right before you go to bed can make it difficult to get to sleep.

The blue light interferes with melatonin production. Download the free program flux to map your screen's hue with the sunrise/sunset. Whenever I go into the other room and look at my friend's screen after using flux on mine, it almost hurts how bright the blue light is. Flux really helps with sleep cycles.

I really want an ebook
