While I agree with you for the most part, I suspect that would depend upon the person. There are people who use their tablet almost exclusively, or exclusively, for reading. A few freaks, such as myself, have even installed alternative software just so that they could strip out anything that isn't related to reading. Example: my tablet is setup with some ereading software, a web browser that's used solely to read books that were published in HTML format (e.g. The Feynman Lectures on Physics and programming documentation), and an alarm clock.
