Isn't that the point of ebook readers?

The Kindle is designed for reading. Intuitive placement of next page / previous page, light enough to hold in one hand, portable enough to throw in a bag and not even be able to notice its size/weight. You begin to notice little conveniences like not needing to make any movements to turn pages.

So yes...I've substituted most of my reading from a computer that wasn't designed for reading, to a "computer" that was.
