Agreed. This site shows pretty clearly that dedicated reader fans have little interest in giving up e-ink. For the millionth time, there's plenty of room in the market for both e-ink dedicated readers, tablets, PDAs, smart phones etc.

People need to quit talking about "kindle killers" and the demise of e-ink, as well as e-ink enthusiast needing to quit being so harsh on other devices that don't suit their needs as they do fit other's needs.

I disagree that Apple won't tout the reading ability of their tablet. They won't market it as a reader by any means, but they will tout reading e-books as one of the many things one can do with it.
