Look at the Sony reader sometime. I remember seeing a single letter on a breadboard E-ink display years ago, and since then I've wanted a reader with that surface. It seems like everyone that handles one wants it. The ideal is an entire library of books in your back pocket, that 'feels/reads' like a regular book. It is getting closer, but the Kindle does seem like a baby step back from the Sony reader.
I saw a Sony reader on the Subway the other day. I had to do a double take -- at a 5ft distance, it looks _exactly_ like paper. I didn't get a chance for a closer look, unfortunately.
