As mentioned in another posting:
My fear is that Ebook-reader will end up as multifunctional gadgets. With colour-screen, games, apps, wifi, 3g, 4g, bluetooth, multi-touch-screen, mp3-player, video-player, tv-receiver, ...
Oh, they already exist and are called TABLETS.
Tablets are cooler and can/could do everything you ever need (more or less). Thats why they sell better than ebook readers.
Same thing years ago with cellphones. In the beginning they had black and white screens. Perfect readable under sunlight. But colour is cooler than just b&w. Then every cellphone have been delivered with colour screen. Even "outdoor" cellphones. Which have been unable to use in sunlight...
Cooler but unusable for the purpose they have been produced for.
