The e-readers can quite replace your tablet during a trip, though it is only about reading during the journey!
Reading is an excellent activity during travel. It teaches, allows to escape and forget the length of the journey by helping to pass the time without realizing it; in the space of a hundred pages or two, one can easily make a Paris-Bordeaux. On longer journeys, we can even devour more than one book, see three, four, five or six. The only constraint would therefore be space in his bag to store all his books.
