I am very familiar with e-ink and e-readers in general. This isn't an uniformed opinion, it's a
preference. I don't find it comfortable to read for long periods of time, e-ink or not.

I'm with Barry, John, et. al. I spend 8+ hours a day looking at a
computer screen, and I don't have any interest in an e-pub. As much as I'd
like to purchase the work, I am not going to if it is only offered in
e-format. Sorry Ray, digital media may be the hip thing, but I'm not going
to give up my dead trees quite yet and the only way I am going to convince
them to be kept is if I refuse the alternative completely (which is easy
since I don't like it).

I hear you James, If I were to read these ebooks on an Ipad or any other
tablet I would hate it for the same reason. However a Kindle, a Kobo, or
any other e-ink device is nothing like a computer screen and to be honest
sometimes after a long day at the computer I enjoy being able to increase
the size of the text to ease my eyes, something I can't do on a dead tree
book.
