While generally I agree with you. New type of software/hardware tends to reach a point where subsequent improvements doesn't add _huge_ value to end users. Which is when I think it is a perfect time to buy a new technology. Some example I can think of is: Iphone Original and 3g. The original was good but with 3G Apple reached a point of equilibrium where it is safe to say that waiting 6 months to a year for the next iphone won't give you hugely superior product. (Maybe a free firmware update to a better software) But ereader market is not very matured, until recently it was dominated by sony, who didn't care much about innovation - because there was no major competition. With big players like Amazon - B&N - Apple entering the market, just now, it will initiate some major changes/improvements in a very short time. Which is why the perfect time to buy an e-reader in my opinion is at the end of this year. Personally I read a lot on my macbook, which I think is a great indoor reading device.
