Uh, Amazon Kindle with pre-loaded content? Google Chrome books like they use in schools?
Obviously not iPods, as they've been revealed as our cronies' favorite tool for not-quite-good-enough encrypted communications...

my first very selfish reaction after pondering the impact of the excellent point of your comment: good lord, all jurors may eventually have to be sequestered to avoid lobbying, they will have to go cold turkey back to the stone age, read books. Maybe they can figure out some software where they can at least let them have tablets with censored choices of entertainment?

Accidentally clicked this - but interesting, as even bail conditions now get trolled by the mob on-line, not around the jailhouse, while high-speed lynching takes on new forms. And judges have to 'splain themselves to a much wider, more diverse, and partially more rabid audience, and face untoward attentions that were once unheard of.

Of course the troller-in-chief is currently trolling a high-profile trial as well, so the fish rots from the head down - almost literally.
