From Bloomberg.com: A Federal Communications Commission effort to bring digital textbooks to U.S. students faces resistance from schools with limited budgets for buying devices such as Apple's iPad tablet computer. FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski has announced plans to get all K-12 students using electronic titles within five years. The initiative, which doesn’t involve any additional U.S. government funding, is meant to speed adoption of e-textbooks. Textbook publishers have been making the digital transition to electronic textbooks, but many schools don’t have the devices needed to use them.
