My point is if my passport had empty pages there is no chance I would bring it around and use it as notebook so tablet and e-notebook can't go to same category?

I think each student in any level of education has at least 2-3 notebooks around with them. Isn't it demand attractive?

Yeah, but most would probably prefer to just buy a tablet and use that instead since they can use it for more then just an e-notebook, unless there was a way to make e-notebooks cost similar to traditional notebooks which I just can't see happening.

I still don't understand why you can't have a personal tablet and a separate work tablet.

I think the question is: if you only need to take notes and e-notebook costs $20 would you spend $600 dollars for a tablet to be used as notebook?

The only problem I see with that is that one of the reasons notebooks are so cheap is because you almost constantly need new ones. They either get filled up or worn out relatively quickly. Therefore, companies know you will have to buy more to replace the ones you've already bought. That is part of the reason they are so cheap.

The same probably wouldn't be true for e-notebooks. They could hold tons more notes and hopefully be more durable than notebooks. Due to those factors, a company who produces them knows they aren't going to have as many reoccurring sales in the future to replace the e-notebook, so they are going to likely charge more up front.

Just my opinion and maybe I am totally incorrect.
