She loves her tablet, she says, and when she reads, she just reads (more self-control than I have, I strongly suspect). When she is not reading, she can use her tablet for a multitude of extras -- writing notes to herself, checking e-mail, updating a grocery shopping list, or just as a plain old phone.
Now I find on bookcatcher.com that a publishing company has held a survey of readers asking if they would be prepared to pay more, just to be able to read a book on a gadget that offers all those extras listed by Shayne. The company is Cathedral Rock Publishing. It's a small survey, but surprisingly positive. And yes, eBook readers strongly support gadgets with additionals, such as audio and video, and are willing to pay more to get what they want.
