The experience is very different, however. Little things like pagination and spacing shouldn't count, but they do.

I agree with this. Reading on the computer is what I do for work, and my irrational concern is that I will mentally equate an ereader with work instead of fun and relaxation. Reading dead trees is what I do to relax. Upstairs I have a "Luddite room" with a comfy chair, bookshelves and zero technology other than the electric lights and ceiling fan. If I could get a $30 book for $5 on a Kindle or other style device, however, and that leads me to reading more? I'd have to seriously consider getting one.
