With the pricing and DRM restriction of the ebooks, I really can't see that it'll replace the pbooks. I have adopted the ereader but I haven't spent much money in buying books. I mainly read library books and free books. It makes little sense to me to buy a book that I don't own, I can't lend, I can't share, I can't sell, I can't donate and the worst of all is I can't read on another device unless I strip the DRM or install some proprietary app. To top that off, it is not even cheap; it is more expensive than a paparback.
