What other tablet computer is actually selling? Should students be buying an eBook reader and a tablet computer? Is creating content for a distribution system that mainlines directly into 50 million+ customers (growing by 5m every month) who've demonstrated they'll spend money a waste of anyone's time?

iBooks are way beyond textbooks and way beyond anything ePub delivers.
