A lot of Tablet in Comic Market
I went to world's largest self-published comic book fair "comic market(Comiket)" at the end of last year.
What comic market ? via Wikipedia
This event is a sacred place of the otaku. And it's the place that can know the most tip of the Japanese contents industry.
I was able to watch the "change" that was here this time. It is that a lot of creators were using the tablet. iPad, Kindle, galaxy Tab......(and a little PSP, too). There were a lot of people who were using iPad.
In last summer, there were a few people who used tablet. Main users were the people who wrote a novel as the people who made a game. But, I was able to watch tablet with every genre this time. There was even Cosplayer which showed a collection of own Cosplay photographs on iPad.
The e-books correspondence of the publisher in Japan is much later than foreign countries. But Japanese creators begin to make e-books steadily.

JUMP FESTA
On December 19, I went to JUMP FESTA.
JUMP FESTA is Japanese exposition event, all about anime comic, game, movie and music, sponsored by Shueisha. There are various exhibition booths about comic magazine brand "JUMP".
via Wikipedia
There was a lot of exhibition such as e-Books, Social game, Social apps for iPhone/Android, 3D film and AR about new technology this year.
TECMO KOEI HOLDINGS CO., LTD.'s new social game of dating sim for women.
Japanese mobile carrier KDDI collaborated with popular comics "ONE PIECE"
KDDI exhibited AR contents of ONE PIECE which used new Android smartphone "IS03". It used a palm as an AR marker. Characters of ONE PIECE appeared there when I shaded a palm with a camera of IS03 which started application. Because this AR contents are JUMP FESTA-limited, so we can't usually watch this. I wish we can watch this again.
