A person addicted to their electronic tablet (iPad, Galaxy Tablet, Kindle Fire, etc.). This person can often be seen with a tablet pressed up to their face as they walk around. They often smash into people or objects, only to apologize and continue walking with the tablet pressed up to their face.

Guy2: No, what happened?

Guy2: That figures, she's such a tablet addict.
