And I forgot to mention that it had to be affordable. I wouldn't pay more than $150-200 for something like that since I don't mind at all working with print outs. I generally don't do that kind of work outside the office so portability isn't an issue.
Once more and more people will adopt e-ink, the prices will go down. It's only recently entering the lives of non-gadget people. I think, after some time has passed, and the technology is cheaper and expanded, the situation like they have in Star Trek will come to pass. You will have access to several devices (PADDS!) all based on some sort of e-ink technology. And they won't be as expensive as they are now.

By that time, paper books won't be sold that much anymore, but I think they will always be there, though they will probably go up in price.
