True. As I suggested, I expect the tablet form factor to improve (and that would include weight, energy loss (heat) and technology (soft memory instead of hard drive). Look at how far we've already come... we already have soft memory drives, Kindle-comparable sizes and better energy management (though not often together). The tablet PC will get better, and eventually, it will be hard to come up with a good reason to buy a Kindle-form device over a tablet. (At which point, Kindles will probably redevelop their form to another, relatively unique factor, or perish.)
