A study conducted by a Pew Internet and American Life found out that the eBook reading in United States has increased twice in the number during the period of November 10 and May 11. The ebook reader reviews also writes that the rate in the increase was from 6% to 12%. This study reveals that people still prefer them and are purchasing them in good numbers.

According to the ebook reader reviews, the lines between the tablet and eBook reader are being blurred and unclear. In spite of having stand-alone readers, these devices are adopting functionality that is somewhat similar to tablets.

The ebook reader reviews hence writes that where does the confusion ends when eBook stops to look like eBook device and starts to look like a tablet, which runs in an ebook reader compatibility.

In this regard, Pew states that the tablet contains more interactive web functionalities and even with the introduction of new tablets, the growth rate of tables is not that fast.
