Can't see it. Sure development will slow up, there won't be the continual new & improved models every year and you ereader might end up being a little more expensive to buy, but there's no way Amazon for example won't continue to sell an ereader at cost price while they continue to make money from ebook sales. Even if more and more just use tablets, why would they need to stop selling an ereader to those who wanted them?

Yep, just like cameras too?
