...Something we once loved, and love now, in the shape of a book. Maybe e Books are going to take over, one day, but not until those whizzkids in Silicon Valley invent a way to bend the corners, fold the spine, yellow the pages, add a coffee ring or two and allow the plastic tablet to fall open at a favorite page. Russell T. Davies
About This Quote

Since the invention of the computer, people have always wanted to be able to read and write on a computer. There was no way to do so until the invention of the e-reader. Books were the first to be used as e-readers because people loved reading. However, now we can buy any book we want and read it on our tablet without any effort.

With the invention of iPads, tablets are being used for things they were not originally intended for. People are using them in places where they were not meant to be used, like in the kitchen or in bed.
