Reading is dead. The written word is dead and is all but a historic accident: the first recording device we found. We got much better ways now to record not only stories as told second-hand, but directly recording it, full image and sound.
A tablet is a means to get images and sounds. Sure the historic writing device will be there, but it's really pointless. We're on the brink of change. People who grew reading will be reading until dead, but that's it. Don't think newer generations used to cheap recording and distribution of videos will be weeping for it. Ever heard of vlogs and vooks?
