You're probably right-but I think it's also true that few people who buy tablets, for whatever reason, will also buy an ereader. If they have one (and really like it) it's likely they'll continue using it-but to buy a new one after they already have a tablet? I doubt if very many will do that-which is probably why ereader sales have fallen. It's not that the tablet is the better reader, it's that it's the better general purpose device-and few people will want to buy both.
