Actually, it isn't, always behind the cutting edge offered by PC's in
graphics, physics, science, etc. applications and uses ... in firmware,
hardware and software ...

For example, although different programs existed for presenting text and
graphics, in mixed, useable forms, an example is adobe reader, microsoft
first released a reader and format, .lit, which first "solidified" the
format/concept of an "ebook." It was usable on any windows computer ...
still is, but is now being discontinued ... most never even became aware
of its' existence and microsoft never worked to give it much publicity
.... it was only commonly used by those in the computer industry ... now
there are many clones in many different formats ...

Soon after, you see competitors spring up and hardware become devoted to it.

Today, my TV, Stereo, DVD Recorder, etc. IS a computer ... I don't have
a device dedicated for each and every separate task ... computer does it
all. And, so is my "ebook reader" also my computer (actually, one of my
laptops, or any of them, any desktop also, but I like to read in bed.)

To me, it is insane to buy an ebook reader when a laptop serves better ...

Frankly, html should become the standard ebook format and open access to
all, and the hardware to present it allowed to openly compete in the
marketplace "best ereader wins."

.... and, just to "hit those who missed the point, over the head with a 2
x 4!", a laptop IS the best ebook reader! Best movie machine, best .mp3
player, best TV, best DVD recorder, best camera, best stereo, etc., etc.

Just can't make coffee, OJ, toast, bacon, etc. or it would be the best
breakfast machine too!
