"What kind of peace do I mean? What kind of peace do we seek? Not a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. Not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave. I am talking about genuine peace, the kind of peace that makes life on earth worth living, the kind that enables men and nations to grow and to hope and to build a better life for their children - not merely peace for Americans but peace for all men and women - not merely peace in our time but peace for all time." -- JFK

The silly thing about tablet computers is that they require two-hands to read. You can't just place a tablet flat on a table in front of you, because the angle is wrong. The webpads all come with a little stand. My ipaq handheld is better for reading when it's propped up by its keyboard.

To read something on a tablet, you need to hold the tablet in one arm, and control scrolling with the other arm. If you're a "corridor warrior", which arm do you hold your coffee cup in?

Gong.
