Despite common assumptions, a device like Apple's iPad may be better-suited to current readers than dedicated devices like the Amazon Kindle, a new University of Georgia study says. Young adults who tried the Kindle described it as "old" and felt it was too limited compared to their smartphones, which have touchscreens, media playback and third-party apps. Older readers are more receptive but note that news delivery on the Kindle is still limited and omits components they like, such as crossword puzzles or all the secondary sections of a physical newspaper.
