I'm wondering if the question perhaps is less whether they'll stop making single-purpose e-readers altogether, and more whether there'll be any high-end e-readers in a few years.
Take the single-game portable gaming unit as an example. At one point there were high quality such units being made by people like Nintendo, but these days it's pretty much just cheap crap from Hong Kong.
I for one hope the big guys don't give up on e-ink readers anytime soon. I like only having to charge my Kindle once every couple of weeks.
