Subject: Static vs. Dynamic

A textbook is a static learning tool. If it has a misprint, or needs to be updated, I am offered an oppurtunity to buy the next edition.
A laptop, or some other type of electronic textbook, can be easily updated, often without additional cost. Sometimes the upgrade does cost something.
A student in the first grade can have "Dick and Jane" loaded onto the computer, and carry that with them until they "Romeo and Juliet" loaded for high school.
