No I think they still have a propose. I prefer reading on an eink device than on any LCD/amoled display. I guess for listening to music a capable smartphone/tablet will suffice. I do have an ipod touch in addition to my smartphone and tablets, but that in itself is not a dedicated music listening device.
Ironically, when I first got an iPhone years ago, one of the reasons I bought it was because I wanted an all in one device for music, reading, making calls, Web browsing etc. Now I've moved away from that, having a few eink devices, a few tablets and an ipod touch in addition to my smartphone. Then there is my chromebook that I bought because my laptop wasn't portable enough. Not sure what happened lol
