I think he overestimates the future ubiquitousness of ebooks. They will destroy the mass market paperback market, and probably greatly reduce the trade paperback market. Hard covers aren't going anywhere, though, and ebooks as they exist today simply aren't suitable for some types of books.

And regardless of technological superiority, the business model needs some serious attitude adjustment before they'll become the "only game in town."
