I have both a Kindle and an iPhone. The iPhone is not nearly as good for reading books.
The iPhone is more portable, but that's it. The Kindle screen is so much better for reading and the Kindle is still about the size of a paperback book.
It is similar to the camera on the iPhone. It is conveniently always available and it is suitable for casual snapshots, but its not really a very good camera. If I want to take a lot of photos or have better quality photos, I will get out my Canon digital camera. There are times when a dedicated device is superior to a general purpose device.
The device is aimed at gamers and TV watchers, generating a 3D image with use of a pair of 0.7-inch OLED panels, which each display separate images, doing away with the ghost imagery that often comes along with 3D displays.

I find that as much as I like the idea of the Kindle, I find that my iPhone is a much superior book reader despite its smaller screen:
