Both in the sense that I wouldn't be surprised if they're extinct in a few years and, if they're not extinct, that they'll all be loaded with a mass of functions and features that I don't want. Hence I think this may be a good time to pick up a couple of spares which I can stick in the sock drawer until they're needed.
I've had the temptation. My fear is that the market for ereaders will fail, as tablets take over. I never want to go back to paper, and I dislike reading on a tablet (iPad). If the wind blows in that direction, I'll stock pile a few for old age.
