      At that point, why not just read a real book??

      My whole reason for using an ereader is to eliminate the parts of reading physical books that annoys me, why would I buy a subpar reader that makes me do or simulates doing the actions I want to avoid?

      Quit being a baby.

      Quit acting like a child that thinks everyone should think the way you do.
