The Chinese market of tablets for e-book reading is expected to expand to 3 million units this year, a booming industry so robust that it's likely to surpass US by 2015, according to a research report cited by Xinhua on Friday.

The estimate this year, almost four times the 2009 sales volume of 800,000 units, shoots for a 20 percent share of the global market, said the report by consulting research firm DisplaySearch.
