Because of the content, and how you are consuming it?
Technical documentation does not want to be reflowed onto a small display. All such that I've seen needs a big display to show diagrams, preformatted text, tables and any other layout tricks that are used to organize the content. You need a laptop or better at least to read it, if it's not on paper, or else you're gonna have a bad time.
You can use a laptop on a bus, but it sucks. Using a laptop in bed is much worse. A tablet only gets closer to solving those issues if it's laptop-sized.
Reading a story on an e-reader has none of those problems. And it's better to read a story at night before bed than trying to focus on technical documentation before going to sleep.
