Electronic book technology is aiming at a display technology niche not currently occupied by laptops. The three main things that consumers will look for from these devices are good screen quality, long battery life and low price. If ebooks are put at a price point where they have to compete with laptops then they will fail.
Until there is either widespread adoption or the technology has gotten to a point where the extra features you mentioned can be cheaply integrated these are going to have to be very specialised devices if they are to succeed.
