As I said in an earlier post on this thread, I can see the distraction problem. When I have my iPad on there are so many options of things to do. Should I work a crossword puzzle, check email, sketch, create a beat, surf the web, play a game, read a book, listen to music, work on an excel or word doc.... and the list goes on and on.
For my wife and I the book reading experience on the iPad is the best ever. But, I would say that I read about 25% less than I did on the Sony reader. And that is not a bad thing, just a reality. Since I do not watch TV or movies (even on the iPad) it is not a negative to me. Instead I find that I do more creative things than before, and enjoy the mind stretching puzzle games.
But, for the person that is distracted from reading to watch the ABC app or Netflix all the time... could be an issue. Or not, I guess it's really perception.
