I love the reasons people give for buying a tablet. Reading is rarely a significant reason. Tablets are great for playing games, surfing the net, showing off photos and yes, you can read on them.
E-Ink devices are for, wait for it, reading books. Yes you can play a few games but they are made for reading books. They aren't make for game playing and as game devices they can't compete with tablets. They can't compete with tablets for surfing the net, watching movies, and collecting porn, either.
So, more tablets are being sold than e-readers. Readers have never been the majority so why would a device for reading be more popular than a device for playing games.
The original poster seemed to assume that all tablets are sold for reading books. Poor thing, I'm sure he's doing the best he can.
