I don't think e-readers stand a chance with science and engineering textbooks. Look at how engineering students mark up their texts with formula derivations and supplementary material. I could see e-readers used to platform textbooks for the social sciences. Further... with the ease of publishing, instructors could more easily use their course prep notes as the class "text".
