Not when it is better. Carrying a selection of books around at all times is so liberating. Never losing once place. The ease on the eye is far better than white paper books imho which always gave me glare problems.
I bring my Kindle everywhere. I read it in cafe's, waiting rooms, receptions, on the bus an the tram and in the airplane. I can chose at all times between any one of the books I have ready, and when I finish one I know I have another right there waiting.
Yes the tablet does the job, technically. But the screen is far far harder on the eyes and it brings a load of other distractions with it.
