I agree with this. The question is whether this will happen by 2020!

I have a bet on with 3bayjunkie on this topic.

Interestingly, the break-even point on our bet is 2023.

I think we will see a good tablet/ereader combo before 2020. But I don't know if it will have actually displaced mainstream ereaders completely. I think it certainly will have done so my 2030.
