After quickly reading through your post I gather that you're not in the UK? Here, there isn't the money available for each student to have an ipad and a computer.
Also, it's not clear what age you're speaking of, I gather this is at least Secondary age? With web-based software, you can't be sure that the student has access to the internet at home. Although most homes do have internet access, there are still many where the parents are unemployed/low paid/uninterested. You even have the risk of some students selling the ipads etc for drugs.
Therefore books are, in the long run, still cheaper for the education system.
While not a teacher myself, my best friend used to be a secondary school teacher (history), as was one of my elder sisters (English). Your system may work in 'public' schools (British definition = fee paying, often boarding) but not state schools (publicly funded).
I may have totally misunderstood you, if so I apologise.
