E-ink profits are down because
1) the tech hasn't advanced enough for users to upgrade.
2) the early adopters (i.e. dedicated hardcore readers who like tech) have already bought e-readers. See 1).
3) people that don't already have an e-reader prefer print.
4) tablets and phones are fine for occasional readers.
Maybe e-ink will die, but there will always be a market for something better than LCD. It gives a lot of people eye-strain.
