I take the point about the risks of sand etc but the big advantage is its portability and storage capacity. I had four big paperbacks with me on my last two week holiday and got through them before the holiday was over. They did take up a lot of space in the luggage too. The Kindle is smaller than a single paperback.
There are covers to protect the Kindle and a lot cheaper than the £50 quoted by the Telegraph review. Independent manufactorers produce an increasing range at less than £10 and even Amazon have a leather one at £30. The £50 quoted includes a light.
The problem with iPad is the relative size and weight, laying back in bed or on a sofa, holding it comfortably in one hand for long periods. I do most of my reading that way too......
