I don't think pc's or ereaders/tablets are going to go away anytime soon. But then again, neither are cd's/vinyl records, cassette tapes etc. Time marches on but so long as we can buy these products or at least the machines that interface with them (and we can!) we are still in business.

It has become abundantly clear that Sirmaru has no interest in reading what anyone else has to say. The concept of other people having a different use-case for eBooks is too foreign for him to even bother responding to, across this entire forum.
The constant bleating of "OBSOLETE" is an odd one. It sounds rather like media companies trying to get people to shift to a new format on a faster time-table when the market couldn't give a dang. I don't see what eReader features could be invented to make all past eBooks obsolete. They're just text. Any device incompatible with simple text (TXT or HTML) is useless.
