eReader market observations
This comparison whitepaper compares all the major eReader devices on
the market as of 27th January 2010.
Firstly, a few further observations about the market in general:
1
The prices of various eReaders are on a downward curve,
ensuring that a significant number of consumers will be able
to afford these devices in the near future.
2
eReaders encourage paperless reading, thereby curbing the
need to cut down trees for making paper. This way, it can be
argued, the devices help in the preservation of forests and our
environment through the non-use of ink etc. The eco-friendly
nature of eReaders will be a key driver in their future growth.
3
Government backing of eReaders, particularly in education,
will add significant ‘push’ to their popularity. Governor
Schwarzenegger’s decision to put all Californian text books
online last year is simply the first move of many in this sector.
