Essentially an electronic book can be described as a digital version of a classic paper based book. Digital books in many cases are often called ebooks. An e-reader like an Amazon Kindle or Apple iPad is a good way to allow the reader to view the e-book.

This could be a barrier as you won't be able to make use of wireless internet using the device. Using an e-reader with wireless internet access is great if you're away from home and want to have the ability to download e-books on the go.
