My expectation, too.
At least for the North American market.
But the implications are not terribly comforting: the term "shakeout" comes to mind.
If the market flattens out *now*, it means that what we see is what we'll get for the next few years: Amazon well over 50%, B&N struggling to stay afloat, Kobo with a bare toehold, and Sony showing the flag out of pride.
With everybody else lost in the noise.
And with both color eInk and Mirasol thudding at launch there doesn't seem much chance of a disruption changing the current dynamic.

Its going to get... boring...
