Wasn't the tablet PC supposed to be the new eReader in 2001? Some "experts" even predicted that they would be priced under $200, which of course was a joke. I remember reading the reviews in computer magazines and thinking "Oh, well, it sounded like a nice idea at the time..." Sure, there are lighter models now, but they can still weigh a lot, and the price and battery life aren't attractive to me.
