I expect that in 10 years a large minority of books (from big publishers) will be ebook only initially. Most will be hardback/ebook only. And there will be small proportion that are hardback/paperback/ebook.
I also expect that the price on initial release of the ebook will be quite high still, dropping after a year or so, even though there'll be no paperback release.
I expect that ereaders will have gone the way of the PDA and the dedicated MP3 player. That is, subsumed into a more general device, with a few specialist models left for the few who want them.
