Wow! Even I, Kindle evangelist that I am, find it hard to think things will change that fast. For all that to happen (in ten years, too!), a lot of readers' attitudes and habits would have to change, too. I'm wondering just how easy that will be. So, I tried my hand at another poll. If you're reading this on an RSS reader or on FaceBook, please click through to the original post so you can take the poll. Let me know what you think!

Would you prefer a dedicated eReader with a book-sized screen, or or multipurpose device like a phone or a netbook?
Mulitpurpose! I don't ever want to get something just for reading.

Give me a dedicated device; I never want to read on a small screen.
4(40.0%)
I want both-- multipurpose device for reading while on the bus and the dedicated eReader at home.
3(30.0%)
I would sooner crawl over broken glass than buy either one!
