I've only got an iPhone so I can't compare it to eBook readers but reading on the iPhone is good enough for me not to even consider buying an e-reader. Especially since the iPhone offers so many more than just being able to read books on it. (Perhaps once I've actually used an e-reader I'll whistle a different tune :) Also, the battery consumption for just reading isn't that bad. I've found that the battery drains the quickest when wi-fi is on or playing intensive games. I, personally, wouldn't be worried about battery life when reading a book. (Man, what has the world come to! I'm becoming an Apple apologist!)
