We already have the network (the internet), what we don't have is a consistent standard to deliver and load eBooks to the devices. Even if we did have the magical standard (email would work fairly well in reality), it's still slightly cumbersome (but less so) to do writer->reader direct sales because the reader still has to provide some once-off data.
Of course most people will just stick with using Amazon / B&N etc, though for people like J.K.Rowling, they do have the name-power to get away with making people go to their website directly - though one wonders if the 30% gain in income really matters.
